Roz... a word?
Some people need to sleep. And The Offing made me (MADE ME) stay up until 0300 more than once while reading it!
All four @roznay books are on my favourites shelf. But The Offing has taken the new top spot for my favourite of hers.
This is her second travel thriller, the story of university friends Ivy and Regan. They are making their way through Australia's hostel scene when the opportunity to be crew members aboard the 'Alone At Last' comes available.
From interview to setting sail, it's mere hours until they join Christopher, his daughter Lila, and chef Desh for travel across the ocean.
Ivy is leaving behind a dangerous relationship, but is what she's leaving worse than what they're sailing toward?
There are some darker scenes in The Offing than her previous books, and I couldn't get enough! Twists that I must not start on about because I can't be trusted to keep my yapper shut. Be aware, I audibly gasped at one point.
Just get it. Released today!
