Seven guests. One killer. A holiday to remember… ‘Addictive and fun’ Not all the guests will survive their stay… You use an app, called Cloud BNB, to book a room online. And on a cold and windy afternoon you arrive at The Guesthouse, a dramatic old building on a remote stretch of hillside in Ireland. You are expecting a relaxing break, but you find something very different. Something unimaginable. Because a killer has lured you and six other guests here and now you can’t escape. One thing’s for certain: not all of you will come back from this holiday alive… ‘Addictive’ Sun ‘Dark, claustrophobic and full of suspense: is a gripping mystery, and a fantastic debut’ Seven Days ‘Creaking floorboards, secret passages, plaintive cries, howling winds – all the mystery and mayhem you need on a dark winter night’ The Roommates ‘Truly gripping’ Sunday Express
