About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. A luxury superyacht. And a killer picking you off, one by one...

A twist-filled summer thriller, perfect for fans of T.M. Logan's The Holiday and Lucy Clarke's The Castaways

When ex-marine Sarah French joins a luxury superyacht as on-board security, she's excited to get her life - and career - back on track.

Surrounded by crystal waters, it seems like the perfect place to start over.

As they head into open water, though, tensions between the crew quickly build. And when someone goes missing, Sarah has a terrifying realisation.

One of them is a killer. All of them are suspects.

To protect the other passengers, Sarah needs to uncover the killer's identity, and return the boat safely to shore.

But there's a storm on the horizon - and not all of them will make it out alive...

Critic reviews

Fast-paced, gripping and intense - A Stranger on Board is going to make some serious waves this summer (T.M. Logan)
Agatha Christie meets Die Hard on water. A fantastic, full throttle thriller that never takes its foot off the accelerator (John Marrs)
A fabulous, action-packed adventure. The superyacht is a genius premise and, mixed with Sarah's grit, it was an absolute joy to read (Jo Spain)
A Stranger On Board is a taut and thrilling ride. Pure escapist pleasure! (Victoria Selman)
A fast-paced thriller that reminds me of a Hollywood blockbuster transferred to the page, full of intrigue and depth of knowledge and vibrant characters who are realised to maximum effect with a plot that sizzles with numerous twists and turns and had me on the edge of my seat! (James Delargy)
Praise for the author (:)
Twisty, compelling and incredibly pacy...will keep you on the edge of your seat from the first page to the last (Phoebe Morgan)
A hugely enjoyable and original thriller. Cameron's going to be one to watch (Simon Kernick)
A fascinating and unputdownable thriller with a devious twist (John Marrs)
I tore through this perfectly plotted tale of secrets and lies (Victoria Selman)

A bit too long winded. I wasn’t enjoying it so I stopped listening part way through. The premise was good but it didn’t deliver the suspense I was looking for.
