Summary

Her dream escape is about to become a nightmare...

Kimberley King has spent the last five years trying to outrun the reason she left the police force. Her life is a mess and she's desperate for change. So when she is randomly selected for the new series of the hit show LoveWrecked, she can't pass up the chance to win the £100,000 prize. All Kimberley needs to do is couple up with one of her fellow contestants, win the infamous LoveWrecked challenges, and she will have enough cash for a fresh start.

But the island isn't the paradise she was promised and within hours, one of the contestants is dead. Then the announcement comes: one of the islanders is a murderer and Kimberley must find out who, live on television. For every hour it takes her, one more person will die.

The game is rigged, everyone is hiding secrets, and time is running out...

An addictive and unputdownable crime thriller, perfect for fans of Lucy Foley and T.M. Logan.

Critic reviews

Sinister and twisty, The Islanders shows the terrifying darker side of reality TV [...] An utterly compelling read.
-- Lisa Hall, author of "The Party"

'The Islanders is a confident debut with a crackling mystery at its heart. Anyone who has ever thought a murder might spice up a reality show will have a fantastic time with this wonderfully frenetic and wildly entertaining read.
-- Chris McGeorge, author of "Guess Who"

What a thrilling ride! "I Know What You Did Last Summer" meets "Love Island"! Fast paced and fresh - essential reading for fans of a murder mystery!
-- Carys Jones, author of "The List"
