Daisy Darker was born with a broken heart. Now after years of avoiding each other, Daisy Darker’s entire family is assembling for Nana’s 80th birthday party in her crumbling gothic house on a tiny tidal island. The family arrives, each of them harboring secrets. When the tide comes in, they will be cut off from the rest of the world for eight hours.
But at the stroke of midnight, as a storm rages, Nana is found dead. And an hour later, the next family member follows…
Trapped on an island where someone is killing them one by one, the Darkers must reckon with their present mystery as well as their past secrets, before the tide goes out and all is revealed. As seen on the TODAY show and picked by Book of the Month, Daisy Darker's family secrets and Alice Feeney's trademark shocking twists will keep readers riveted.

okay miss girl ate. i think this might be a play on agatha christie’s “and then there were none” but idk cause i haven’t read that book yet but GIRL, captured. PLOT TWIST ENDING/REVEAL. i did not see it coming at all. like any of it. Took me about 50-70 pages to get into the book but once i was in it i was in it. It’s a great thriller. Perfect for spooky season. Just something to take the edge off ya know.
My favorite book that I’ve read with my book club. It was well written. I for one did not guess the ending! I recommend the audio book version as well.
I wouldn't necessarily run to read this book as the plot flow could be shifty at times bouncing between the reality of the murderous night and the past background stories. It was a better murder mystery book, that seems inspired by classic authors, so it is a book I would suggest more than others for a vacation or chalet read. Daisy Darker is the heart of the story, and the connection that made the whole narration interesting. I think this is one of those books that might be better as a movie.
