The Boat House is a gripping thriller which grabbed my attention from the beginning and never let go. There are secrets, lies, obsessions, a boat house, and a dog! What more could I ask for?
Max has arranged a week away with Emily, his girlfriend, at boat house on the Norfolk Broads. Things have been rough. Emily’s father has been ill and passed away. Plus, there are secrets and lies. This is a time for them to reconnect and focus on just themselves (and their dog, Scout). Their weekend away soon becomes a nightmare. Strange things are happening which have Emily on edge. Max is getting irritated but soon even he can’t deny that maybe, just maybe there is someone out there…
This became a captivating, fast paced page turner. As the tension mounts and more is revealed about all the characters involved, I was glued to the pages. I enjoyed how Beevis lets readers in on just enough information at certain parts in the book to keep thing moving, addictive, and shocking. This book takes a sinister turn as things begin to happen at the boat house. I feared for Max and Emily and was on the edge of my seat as the danger mounted.
Beevis has written another book and picked the perfect setting with the secluded boat house. I enjoyed both Max and Emily. They are flawed and make mistakes, keep secrets, and don’t always use the best judgement. Then there is a character that is twisted and dangerous.
This book was pure enjoyment. I enjoy reading Keri Beevis’s books. They are hard to put down, full of twists and turns, fast paced and hard to put down. I’m already looking forward to her next book.
Gripping, well written, addictive, and fast paced!
