The Siren

The Siren


by Katherine St. John


⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5


Author Katherine St. John is back with her follow release after Lion’s Den and she is delivery the layered story telling you have come to expect with all the angst and dram build up we thriller readers crave!


Set on a private resort in a tropical island being used to film the movie, also titled The Siren, this books centres around three women interconnected by the film and unforeseen incidences from their pasts…


We have the movie producer, Taylor, a washed up starlet, Stella and her personal assistant, Felicity. As film starts to roll the drama starts both onset and off, and but the time tropical storm Eva starts to hit the island, she is not the on tempest brewing!


This was a great read that unfolded layer by layer as the story is told through news and social media release and in the three women voices in present time and through flashbacks. St. John is adept at building up the drama, so much so, that by the end chapters I was on the edge of my seat and I couldn’t put this book down until I made it to the resolution!


An excellent summer thriller!
