About this audiobook
When Caz steps onboard the exclusive cruise liner RMS Atlantica, it’s the start of a vacation of a lifetime with her new love, Pete. On their first night they explore the ship, eat, dance, make friends, but when Caz wakes the next morning, Pete is missing.
And when she walks out into the corridor, all the cabin doors are open. To her horror, she soon realizes that the ship is completely empty. No passengers, no crew, nobody but her. The Atlantica is steaming into the mid-Atlantic and Caz is the only person on board. But that’s just the beginning of the terrifying journey she finds herself trapped on in this white-knuckled mystery.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Wow!!! Talk about the edge of your seat. If I hadn't had to sleep so I could go to work, I would have finished this in one sitting. At one point (no spoilers here), I did say, "Seriously?' But it all kind of came together for me. Till the end, the end left me disappointed or expecting a follow-up. All in all it is exciting and a fun read.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I didn't know I'd be listening to a horror novel. I normally avoid them. I kept listening because of the characters' inner thoughts & the underlying theme of the book.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Book was too long and I did not care for the narrator. I wasn’t connected to any of the characters and found the plot uninteresting; just a little ridiculous. I really wanted to like this one but wished I would have skipped it!

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great book, but the end, aaarrrggghhhh....... Will Dean please write a sequel. I adored Caz' character so much. I was really rooting for her. The people orchestrating this whole mess all deserve the worst fires of hell. The narration was really good too. One of the better books I have listened to this year, even the acknowledgements by the author were interesting. I will for sure be looking for more from Will Dean, truly a gifted writer.
