Goodreads Synopsis: Three couples rent a luxury cabin in the woods for a weekend getaway to die for in this chilling locked-room thriller by New York Times bestselling author Lisa Unger. What could be more restful, more restorative, than a weekend getaway with family and friends? An isolated luxury cabin in the woods, complete with spectacular views, a hot tub and a personal chef. Hannah’s loving and generous tech-mogul brother found the listing online. The reviews are stellar. It’s his birthday gift to Hannah and includes their spouses and another couple. The six friends need this trip with good food, good company and lots of R & R, far from the chatter and pressures of modern life. But the dreamy weekend is about to turn into a nightmare. A deadly storm is brewing. The rental host seems just a little too present. The personal chef reveals that their beautiful house has a spine-tingling history. And the friends have their own complicated past, with secrets that run blood deep. How well does Hannah know her brother, her own husband? Can she trust her best friend? And who is the new boyfriend, crashing their party? Meanwhile, someone is determined to ruin the weekend, looking to exact a payback for deeds long buried. Who is the stranger among them? Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six by Lisa Unger | Goodreads Thank you to Lisa Unger, Legend Press and NetGalley for providing me with an ebook copy of Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six for me to read and review. I enjoyed that this was written from multiple points of view, so that readers can see different sides of the larger picture. The characters were unique and interesting and kept me curious through the book. I found the plot to be quite slow moving and I really wasn't feeling the pull to keep reading until more than 3/4 of the way through. There were mysterious details and connections that weren't made clear until near the end of the book and I would have been much more hooked if there had been some hints and details earlier in the story. I love not knowing the 'answer' until the very end, but the slow moving first 3/4 has outweighed the surprises and conclusion of the ending in my personal opinion. 2 Stars!
