Publisher's Summary
From USA Today bestselling author Margot Hunt comes the chilling tale of what happens when a family besieged by a storm must play host to uninvited guests.
When a Category 5 hurricane is poised to hit their coastal Florida town, the Davies family takes refuge in their waterfront manse. Marlowe, Lee, and their teenage twins invite their close friends to wait out the storm in comfort and style.
Uninvited are the three strangers who dock on the family’s shore right before the storm descends. Brothers Jason and Bo—and Bo’s girlfriend, Darcy—are a charming, helpful trio in need of a safe haven that the family is only too happy to provide.
But as the storm outside grows more threatening, so does the tension in the house.
Soon, the lines between family, friends, and strangers blur. Danger mounts with every pointed finger and broken confidence, and long-held secrets are revealed one after another until only one truth remains: not everyone is going to make it out alive.

From enmity to anxiety, they expertly portray every emotional moment. Will appeal to listeners seeking a fast-paced, family-centered suspense. Recommended for fans of Joy Fielding, Robyn Harding, and Adrian McKinty.”—Library Journal

An original gripping thriller filled with heart.
It took me a few chapters to fall into the rhythm of this story but I persevered because I'm familiar with Margot Hunt's other work, and I know I can trust her to take me somewhere new, layered and exciting. She did not disappoint with The Guests. I'm often distrustful of a cast of many narrators as they can tend to be confusing or fail to present a story that flows. I found each of the narrators in this audiobook perfect for their role, and I ended up enjoying each of them in their characters. I also appreciated the nanosecond extra bit of a break between chapters that I found helped the listener to ease into the next section, almost like a palate cleanser. I loved the audiobook. and rate it an easy 5 out of 5. Thanks again, Ms. Hunt!
