About this listen

EVERYONE IS INVITED. EVERYONE MUST PLAY THE GAME.

A year ago today, we all gathered for Lucas's wedding at his glorious Cornish home overlooking the sea.

But no one was married that day.

Now Lucas has invited us back to celebrate the anniversary. But the anniversary of what? The wedding that never happened, or the tragedy that occurred just hours before the ceremony was due to begin?

He's told us that tonight he has planned a game. We have our costumes, we have our parts, and everyone must play. The game, he tells us, is about to begin.

What does Lucas want from us? What are we not being told? And what's going to happen when this terrible game is over?

Absolutely brilliant

The best audible book I have listened to for a while now. The story is great, gripping from the start to finish with a good narrator. I love the way Rachel Abbott writes and will keep coming back for more.

Ending

I would have liked more detail and reaction from Isobel and nick. As well as everyone else when they found out the truth. Bit of an anticlimax non the end.

Not as good as the Tom series, but certainly better than the first in this series

Sadly I guessed the twist fairly early on, but that didn’t stop my enjoyment. I found the first book in this series leaving me unfulfilled and I almost didn’t bother with this one but I’m pleased i did, and can’t wait for the next one.
