      HOW DID IT COME TO THIS? The news arrives like a slovenly traveler, dragging its feet and revealing horrors gradually. It begins with violence—the urgent hammering on the front door. Life can change in an instant. Lucy has everything: a beautiful home on the clifftops, a devoted husband, and two beloved children. Then one morning, time halts. Their family yacht is found abandoned at sea, and Lucy's husband is missing. As the seconds pass, she wonders if he took the boat and where he might be. A once-in-a-generation storm complicates the rescue, prompting Lucy to piece together the events onboard. A shocking discovery plunges her into a nightmare: her children are also missing. Reviewers praise the writing as beautifully evocative, with a strong sense of place and tension. The atmosphere is described as hostile and volatile, capturing the sea's power both literally and metaphorically. The narrative is a cleverly crafted page-turner, with each page delivering a fresh jolt to the reader. About the Author: Sam Lloyd, raised in Hampshire, developed a passion for storytelling. He currently resides in Surrey with his wife, three sons, and a howling dog. His debut thriller, The Memory Wood, received critical acclaim in 2020, followed by the equally praised second thriller, THE RISING TIDE, in 2021.
