This is a light, easy read with lots of action, however it's pretty far-fetched. You've got be willing to go with a plot that involves someone working on a Caribbean island for a few days getting dragged into murder, voodoo, devil worship & smuggling, which all comes to a head in an unexpected force 3 hurricane. If you do, you'll probably quite enjoy it. It kept me entertained but at the same time, I was happy to finish it and get back to some more down to earth thrillers.

A film crew goes to a Caribbean Island to film a commercial. When they arrive, they learn things are not as they appear to be. A young Production Assistant is temporarily in charge. People begin dying and she is made to look like the culprit. There are strange ceremonies that appear satanistic, young girls who are being used by the Preacher, his wife, a hard nosed "Lady" who is cold and rigid, but also having an affair with the British honorary consul. Throw in a small but intense hurricane and you have the basics. What happens then would be a spoiler! The novel is quick and relatively simplistic reading.

One of the viewers use the term "far fetched". That is quite an understatement. Kate seems to be in grave trouble all throughout the book. For most of the book, for no apparent reason. That being said, there was lots of action and lots of suspense. There were a few twists and turns that were interesting. It was a very fast reed.

Quite different to Frost’s previous two novels, only in that The Shoot is a more serious read and not quite so light-hearted. Fast-paced and action-packed. A great read.
