Island Endgame

By: Rebecca Hodge

Narrated by: Erika Calvert

An isolated island. A grieving nurse, struggling to heal. Three desperate fugitives taking hostages. Can she outwit them and survive?

Guilt-ridden over the drowning death of her nine-year-old nephew, Kenzie Adams flees her nursing job at a major city hospital to work at a primitive but picturesque island summer camp. Hopefully a few low-stress months away from the city will help steer her life back on course. But before the campers arrive, Kenzie’s second chance takes a turn to real-life terror. Three determined fugitives invade the island to search for a rumored treasure, and they threaten to kill Kenzie and the staff, including the caretaker’s young son.

Their captors have a plan…until Kenzie seizes an opportunity to escape. But with no weapons, no communications with the outside world, and mounting danger from increasingly desperate men, she’ll have to tap into unexpected strengths to save everyone before the captors deliver on their ultimatum—find treasure or die. Kenzie must learn to trust herself again, or she’ll relive her greatest nightmare, failing to save yet another child.

Island camp

I really enjoyed the book. The book was hard to put down. Great characters with their own sorted history. Made for a good story. Narrator was great. She played each character so well. It felt like there were many narrators reading.

Nail biting thriller!

This was a wild ride of action and suspense with a satisfying ending. Erika Calvert's narration skillfully kept the pace moving and me on the edge of my seat. Great listen!
