WELCOME TO THE ANCHORAGE, FOR A HONEYMOON YOU'LL NEVER FORGET . . .

Charles and Grace wanted a quiet staycation honeymoon, but when their train terminates early due to a storm up ahead, they wonder if they made the wrong decision. Forced to take shelter in the nearest seaside town, Saltwater, they discover that there is only one guesthouse left. Unlike the rest of Saltwater, The Anchorage is entirely deserted.

That night, with the storm howling relentlessly, Grace is woken by a child crying. She is haunted by the sound, until Charles convinces her it was only her imagination. But the next day, she finds a warning scrawled in the guest book: Leave now. Do not trust them.

As the storm rages on, phone lines are down, transport links cut off. Grace is desperate to leave, but Charles remains unaffected by the eerie stillness of the house. Is it just Grace's imagination or do the owners, and Charles, have something to hide?

THANK YOU FOR STAYING AT THE ANCHORAGE. WE HOPE YOU'LL BE BACK SOON...

Grace and Charles are looking forward to a relaxing honeymoon, but when their train is brought to an unscheduled stop due to adverse weather conditions, the couple are forced to take refuge in a creepy B&B where they’re the only guests. What unfolds next is anything BUT relaxing… I love psychological thrillers that feature ‘haunted houses’, and the guesthouse in this book is so captivating, it almost feels like an extra character. The story unfolds dramatically, the tension ratcheting up page by page, until I was literally on the edge of my seat. Well-plotted and twisty, with a big emotional surprise at the end, The Guest Book will stay with you long after you’ve finished reading it.
