The Last Guest House

By: Caroline Mitchell

Narrated by: Guy Mott, Katy Sobey

Your perfect escape. Your worst nightmare.

DC Nicola McKenna promised her boyfriend Matt she would leave work behind for a romantic weekend in the Isle of Skye, but things get off to a bad start when a hotel mix-up leaves them stranded, just as a snowstorm is blowing in. Luckily, one last guest house on the island has room...

The couple is glad to reach the safety of The Loch House, especially with little George asleep in the back, but their relief is short-lived when they are given strange rules 'for their own good' and start to hear whispers of the house's dark past. Despite her scepticism, Nicola can't ignore the gnawing sense that there is something really wrong with this place. And when her son suddenly disappears, she starts to wonder if they will ever leave here alive...

As snow starts to fall, and night closes in, can Nicola solve the mystery of The Loch House before it claims another victim?

The absolutely gripping, action-packed new thrilled from bestselling author Caroline Mitchell. Perfect for fans of The Sanatorium and The Hunting Party.©2024 Caroline Mitchell (P)2024 Bonnier Books UK

Fabulous Story Dreadful Narrator

I liked the female narrator but the male narrator especially the one who narrated the "podcast" was just awful. Such a pity for such a good story which kept me completely hooked and held my attention

I love Caroline Mitchell, this book…not so much

I didn’t care for the podcast part and I felt like the character’s choices and behaviors were forced in this book. I really love Caroline Mitchell, this book, not so much.

Very different from the normal from Caroline.

Very suspenseful. Very good. Can’t wait for the next one! Curious as to what the very end was?

Unusual But Intriguing

This story is not a customary style for Caroline Mitchell, but what she created is unusual and intriguing. The owners of The Last Guest House are an older couple that at first seem a little eccentric, but, it truth, they are harboring a dangerous and deadly secret. The guests also seem like an ordinary group, but as the story begins to unfold, we learn that nothing is what it seems to be.

There were a few times I thought I knew what was going on, but then a new piece of information would make me doubt my conclusions. The ending was not what I expected and it made for a compelling read/listen.

I have enjoyed all of Caroline's stories and this one was no different. Well Done!

This was ODD

I did not enjoy this book, the interruptions for "newscasters" was odd. The story did not stay connected and there was no end. Very disappointed.
