Review of Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six by Lisa Unger

 I received a copy of this title via NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own. 

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?

My Review:

5 Stars

A restful getaway with close friends and family....who wouldn't jump at the chance?

Hannah isn't exactly jumping at the thought of leaving her child, but is looking forward to some adult time with her husband, brother and friends. A perfect time to relax and catch up with the ones that she loves the most. Hannah's expectations are soon to be shattered though. 

As a horrible storm moves in Hannah becomes increasingly stressed. Will she be able to get in touch with her son? Will they be able to make it through the storm? At least she's surrounded by the ones she trusts and loves the most. 

A story that has twists and turns you can't see coming. Definitely a thought provoking and intriguing story. Makes you again contemplate on how well you know those closest to you, even if they are your own flesh and blood. 

This book is an exceptional read. Lisa Unger does not disappoint at all.
