Book: The Resort

Author: Sara Ochs

Thank you NetGalley and RB Media for an advanced audio copy.

The Resort is an excellent book that just fell short of me loving it. The first thing I want to talk about is the ending, without spoilers of course. I want to thank author Sara Ochs because she did something I want more authors to do. This probably makes no sense to anyone but me but thank you Sara Ochs, thank you.

This story is a dual POV between Cass and Brooke. Cass is a young woman who is running from her past and finds a new life on a tourist island off the coast of Thailand where she teaches scuba diving. A week after a young woman was found dead, during her scuba class Cass finds the body of one of her students underwater. This is the second death that’s ruled accidental in a short time.

Brooke is a travel influencer who may have other motives for being at the resort. She and Cass became friends and teamed up to try to find out what happened with both deaths on the island. I loved the mystery and the conclusion to this book was perfect, but it took way too long to get going; that was my only problem with the book.

Final score: 4/5
