About this listen
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

Could not switch it off.
This was a great listen. Perfect for a dark winter's night. The reading was first class and story line kept me booked from beginning to end.

Follow the rules!
Well this one felt creepy right from the minute Alex McKenna, her son, George, and her boyfriend, Matt, stepped through the doors of the Loch House. I think I'd have turned right round and left but I guess that in a storm they didn't have any other option. As they check in they're presented with a set of rules by the strange owners! And when they meet their fellow guests they learn the terrible history of the house.
The story is quite original and very tension filled. In between chapters there are excerpts from a true crime podcast (this worked very well in the audible version!) which at first appear to have no connection to the story. There was a diverse range of characters - some likeable and some not so much. I particularly disliked Matt!
I enjoyed the narration by Guy Mott and Katy Sobey.

*Rules and More*
This was certainly a strange one. There were a motley crew of characters, most of them were not who they seemed.
We have Dc Nicola McKenna, she has a terrible past of being involved with a violent and abusive partner and father of her son George. When he goes to prison she still lived in fear as to what would happen when he is released.
She meets Matt who seemed to be there at the right time. She divulged a secret that if exposed could mean a different path of life for Nicola. The sad thing is when he senses her feelings have changed towards him he holds her secret over her. He would love nothing more than for her to leave the force and have a family in his head she would be bonded to him.
When Matt decides to whisk her away on a couples weekend to Scotland, she agrees but wants to take her son George and such is his desperation to go he relents.
Well, what happens is anything but the weekend either of them expected. When Matt’s original hotel is ruined because of a mix-up they have no alternative but to book into the only place left with a room.
The Loch House should be just the ticket? Or is it. As they enter the proprietors are as strange as they seem. To stay they are presented with rules ‘for their own good’ but that is only the start of a break that would leave them forever changed….

Good Crime story
The story and how it all came together was good. It was just the male reader that spoilt it for me. His accents and women impressions were terrible.

Quite like it
I normally enjoy the locked room mysteries but this one wasn’t to my taste. The characters were universally unlikeable and I didn’t enjoy the way the podcast was read. Story was pretty predictable.

Very boring
Story line so dragged out, I was so fed up of it going round and round. characters unlikeable. Actually one of the worst books I've ever read.
