Six old friends. One idyllic glamping weekend. And a storm that will throw everything off course. Max and Annie Kingsley have left the London rat race to set up a glamping site in the wilds of Cornwall. They invite old university friends - TV star Dominic, doctor and new mum Kira, and free-spirited Jim and Suze - and their children for a trial weekend but the reunion quickly veers off-course. First, there's The Incident around the campfire on the first night. The following afternoon, a storm quickly develops off the rugged North Coast. The children embark on a group excursion to the beach, but return one child short, and all hell breaks loose.

It will keep you guessing until the last page.
