WELCOME TO ERIS - A SCOTTISH TIDAL ISLAND WITH ONLY ONE HOUSE, ONE INHABITANT. . . ONE WAY OUT.

THE CHILLING AND ADDICTIVE NEW THRILLER THE GLOBAL NO.1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF
THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN AND A SLOW FIRE BURNING.

She no longer sleeps when the tide is out, she only rests when the sea separates her from the land. When she knows no one can sneak up on her.

Eris, an island with only one house, one inhabitant, one way out.

Unreachable from the Scottish mainland for twelve hours each day.

Once home to Vanessa. A famous artist whose notoriously unfaithful husband disappeared twenty years ago.

Now home to Grace. A solitary creature of the tides, content in her own isolation.

But when a shocking discovery is made in an art gallery far away in London, a visitor comes calling.

And the secrets of Eris threaten to emerge . . .

Yep boring and story ending just fizzled out

Had high hopes for this however I found it soooo boring and the story didn’t ever really take off. Really quite a painful listen.

Boring

I just found this book boring. The narrator was ok but sometimes the character voices were a bit hard to listen to

A slog to listen to

I did not care for any of the characters. That said, it might make a good play.

The ending also sort of drifts off, and I had to go back and re-listen to see if I missed it. It's nowhere near as good as Girl on Train.
