And secrets can be deadly . . .

    Four women have registered and paid a high fee to spend a weekend being pampered at a pregnant women's yoga retreat. Selina and her partner Will own and operate the retreat, and Selina has worked very hard to make everything perfect. Each of the pregnant women come to the treat with dark secrets, but no one has as dark a secret as Selina herself. Each character in The Sanctuary is unique, and I found the characters written in the background far more interesting. Each woman's tale is told a bit painfully slow, and I found the three-day retreat feeling more like a week. This book kept my interest to the especially intense conclusion, but I grew weary of the women's thoughts and naive actions.

    A thoroughly addictive thriller which will keep you hooked from the first to the last page. Very skilfully written so that what begins as a wonderful retreat for pregnant women spirals quickly into the dark and sinister as secrets begin to emerge, and strange events occur. The complexity of characters adds depth and intrigue. Loved it!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Competently written, tense thriller
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 16, 2021
    This is a competently written, tense psychological thriller about a group of pregnant women attending a yoga retreat for some prenatal luxury. Which doesn’t exactly sound immediately suspenseful, but believe me it is!

    As well as the usual nerves and pre-baby worries, each of the women appears to be concealing a secret. As the weekend progresses, sinister events begin to occur. Everyone has something to hide and no one is who they seem.

    The story is told from multiple viewpoints, which really helps define the individual personalities here. The author has created some really engaging, believable characters and the idyllic retreat with it’s lavish bell tents and well tended grounds is cleverly and atmospherically portrayed.

    The book is full of twists and unexpected reveals, which I loved and certainly kept me turning the pages late into the night.

    I definitely recommend this book and eagerly await Charlotte’s next novel.

    Thanks to the author, publishers Quercus Books and Net Galley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
