Dare to step on board The Lion's Den?

When Belle is invited by her old friend Summer on a luxurious girls' getaway to the Mediterranean aboard her billionaire boyfriend's yacht, the only answer is yes.

But once aboard the opulent Lion's Den, the dream holiday quickly turns into a nightmare. Belle and the other six women Summer has invited are treated more like prisoners than guests by their powerful host, locked into their cabins at night, their every move controlled - and Belle finds Summer herself is no longer the girl she once knew.

It soon becomes clear someone has a dark secret. Pulled into a dangerous game of cat and mouse, Belle realizes she must keep her wits about her if she is to make it off the yacht alive...

Early praise shows readers are utterly gripped by The Lion's Den...

Given the length of this, it was very easy to get through. The setting, the characters and the plot bubbling were all built nicely. The suggestion of an unreliable, false friend is sown without it being obvious who is using who. A drama on the seas around beautiful coastline plays out. What then disappointed was the ending. Having built the mystery nicely, the denouement unfolds a bit like the end of a Mills and Boon novel with the long arm of convenience employed and things falling into place in a very corny manner out of step with the care taken over the many pages that had gone before. Such a shame - I’d hesitate to read this author again if I felt her books ended as lazily as this abs without treating the reader with enough respect that things were really concluded in a remotely credible manner.

Good narration.

Shame about the ending...

An enjoyable listen, storyline kept me guessing, a large part of my enjoyment was the narrator’s delightful range of accents, she’s got the ‘mean girl’ accent down to a tee!

Enjoyed it
