PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
A self-admitted travel addict, Sara Ochs has built a life around visiting beautiful and sometimes dangerous destinations. While learning to scuba dive on a remote island off the coast of Thailand, Sara heard that two backpackers had recently been murdered not far from her hotel. Horrified that something so terrible could happen in such an idyllic location, she knew she had found the inspiration for her debut novel, The Dive. As well as being an author, Sara is an attorney and law professor, who splits her time between the United States and Sweden. You can find Sara on Instagram @saraochsauthor and on Twitter @OchsWrites.
'The Dive turns paradise into a nightmare... and I loved every minute of it. Amongst the diverse cast of characters, there is no one you can trust and everyone has a secret to hide. I was captivated by Sara's writing and can't wait to see what she does next.' * Amy McCulloch, author of Breathless * 'Imagine Lucy Foley's The Guest List transported to a pristine tropical island occupied by travellers, where everyone is running away from something, and nothing and no-one is quite as it seems. The claustrophobic world of beach-bums, influencers and long-term ex-pats, each with their own agenda, is the perfect environment for a fast-paced closed-room thriller that demands to be read in one sitting - prepare to be submerged from the first page and not resurface until that unsettling final line.' * Charlotte Philby * 'Imagine a paradise island resort famed for diving and partying... where the guests find themselves being picked off one by one and someone is hiding a terrible secret that might be the reason why. Propulsive and devilishly twisty, The Dive demands to be read in one breathless sitting. The ideal book to take to the beach in summer 2023 - just not *this* beach!' * Catherine Ryan Howard *
