Reviews
Leah has spun a gripping, knotty web of secrets with a cast of complex characters. The setting is wonderful, drawing the reader in . . . before whipping up a storm that brings a cloudy, claustrophobic atmosphere of lies and paranoia that leaves you turning the pages faster and faster.
So beautifully and deftly handled that it's hard to believe this is a debut. The Beach Hut positively sizzles. It's as twisty as a sand worm castle with a plot that sizzles with dread and suspense!
A compulsive, page-turning thriller - kept me invested and guessing from start to finish. Loved it
A tense and compelling tale of love and loss, secrets, and lies -- and their terrible consequences. Builds to a thrilling ending. I tore through this in two days!
Atmosphere, intrigue and decades old secrets and lies uncovered on the tide - this novel has it all.
Praise for THE BEACH HUT
