About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
Will you brave The Retreat this summer? The new bestselling thriller from the author of The Sanatorium.
They couldn't wait to stay here.
An idyllic wellness retreat has opened on an island off the coast of Devon, promising rest and relaxation—but the island itself, known locally as Reaper's Rock, has a dark past. Once the playground of a serial killer, it's rumored to be cursed.
But now they can't leave.
A woman is found dead below the yoga pavilion in what seems to be a tragic fall. But DS Elin Warner soon learns that the victim wasn't a guest—she wasn't meant to be on the island at all.
And they would do anything to escape . . .
The longer Elin stays, the more secrets she uncovers. And when someone else drowns in a diving incident, Elin begins to suspect that the old stories about the island are true.
Because history seems to be repeating itself—and the guests might not make it home alive . . .

"Pearse goes from strength to strength in The Retreat. The suspense inexorably builds to a stunning climax. An added treat is the return of Elin Warner, who is a fascinating character one can only root for." (David Baldacci, No.1 Sunday Times bestselling author of Mercy)
"A world-class thriller writer. Superb." (Steve Cavanagh, Sunday Times bestselling author of Thirteen)
"The Retreat recalls the one-by-one nerve-shredding of Agatha Christie at her darkest. A fresh, daring, irresistible thriller." (A. J. Finn, No.1 Sunday Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window)

Sarah Pearce’s eagerly awaited follow-up novel doesn’t disappoint!
I was so excited to see that Sarah Pearce’s second novel had been released, following detective Elin Warner on her next case. The Retreat is just as gripping as The Sanatorium and the twists and turns are engrossing- right until the very end in the epilogue! Thoroughly recommended! Can’t wait for book 3 and more!

I feel bad but…
I did not enjoy this book as much as the last book by Sarah Pearce. It was a well written book and the narrater was excellent - no funny voices, if you know what I mean. I just felt it was a bit slow. I will definitely be listening to Sarah’s next book when it is written.
