Whisper Island by Carissa Ann Lynch

"Six of us are going to the island. Only one of us will make it back.
That one of us will be me."

Riley, Sammy, Mia and Scarlett met and became friends in college.  They're all artists and decide to take a vacation for a couple months to a private island in Alaska to concentrate on their art. Whisper Island belongs to a friend of Sammy's brother Rob,  and they can stay rent free. But things begin to sour before they even pack their bags when Mia finds out Rob will be coming along.  Not only was this supposed to be a girls retreat,  but Mia and Rob dated before he broke her heart and she still has feelings for him. When they arrive on the island, they discover that Rob arrived early along with an unexpected guest,  his girlfriend Opal. The house and outbuildings are a lot more dilapidated than expected and the whole island just gives of a creepy vibe. When a human skull is discovered on the property,  the friends decide they've had enough. But when they try to leave they discover their boat,  the only way off the island, has been destroyed. Vacation turns to nightmare after one of the girls is brutally murdered. With no way to call for help and no way to escape,  will any of them survive? 
By the first sentence in this book,  you know who survives and how many,  but what actually happened and why had me on the edge of my seat! What a thrill ride! I loved this creepy book.  Thank you so much to Carissa Ann Lynch and HarperCollins One More Chapter for the opportunity to read this book.
 I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley. The views and opinions expressed in this review are entirely my own.
