### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    "And Then There Were None" for the "Love Island" generation.
  

*by T***1 on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 March 2021*

Rating:  3.5/5Whilst it has a few shortcomings, "The Islanders" is the kind of book that will persuade you to turn a blind eye to them, because it is still, ultimately, an entertaining and enjoyable murder mystery.Kim King is an ex-police officer who left the force under a bit of a cloud.  Since then her life has gone off the rails and she has found herself struggling to hold down dead-end jobs.  Out of the blue she finds herself presented with a golden opportunity to appear on the reality show "LoveWrecked" with the chance to win £100,000.  It is something she simply cannot turn down.  But it isn't long before she finds herself embroiled in a very different adventure to the one she had anticipated ... one with potentially deadly consequences!Anyone familiar with Agatha Christie's "And Then There Were None" (and, let's face it, most avid readers of crime fiction are!) will quickly draw parallels between that classic murder mystery and "The Islanders".  It is clear that S.V. Leonard has taken that format as the basis of her inspiration for this story, but given it a revamp for the "Love Island" generation.  However, it is not simply a latter day facsimile of Dame Agatha's work and there are other influences at play too.  There are elements that put me in mind of the "Saw" films and there is also a plot thread that reminded me very much of C.J. Tudor's "The Other People".As with many novels of this type, the reader is required to suspend disbelief at times and there are some elements that I don't think work as well as they could have done, but overall it is quick, pacy and engaging read for anyone who enjoys "locked room" style mysteries.

    Love island but with a murder mystery/thriller twist
  

*by L***A on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 April 2021*

Love Island but with a murder mystery/thriller twist.Our main character Kim is a former police officer who is chosen to be a contestant on lovewrecked when it returns after a hiatus. Due to her current circumstances she can't say no for a chance to win the prize money. However, the stay in a gorgeous villa on a remote Greek Island is soon cut short when one of the contestants turns up dead. Kim is tasked to solve the murder on live TV, the catch is she only has an hour to do it before someone else is dead.....When I heard about this book I knew I had to read it since it combines my favourite reality TV show with my favourite book genre.This was a fast paced, quick and really enjoyable read for me. I just wish I had been lying poolside whilst reading this. A really great debut novel!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars
