This should have been a short story.

I hated this. Every single character was incredible unlikeable. Not a single redeeming person on this cast.
Vivian is an absolute psychopath and the fact that none of them immediately turned the boat around and went home is crazy.
Not one of them made a single rational decision the entire time.

I really enjoyed this murder mystery. It wasn’t complex or high brow but it was fun.

8.11 hours on Audible. Shocking thriller and mystery in the POV-chapter fashion.

This was an okay listen to make time go quick at work…but nothing special.

Shallow people on a yacht, someone is murdered. I don’t really care who and neither will you.

Quick Audible Popcorn Thriller.
This story about a group of friends taking a decadent trip around the Whitsundays islands in Far North Queensland 🇦🇺 started out interesting.
A uber rich heiress, Vivian La Rue, daughter of Rodger La Rue, is treating her friends to an all expenses paid, tour of the islands onboard her yacht, Drifter.
The other passengers:
Vivian’s Boyfriend, American, Hugh, son of a move producer
Australian, Uni student and Vivian’s BF, Amy
English Landed Gentry, Daniel and his GF Cecile
What starts off as Sun, Fun, booze, drugs, wild parties, a lot of dares, end s with Vivian playing a manipulative game of secrets.
She knows all their secrets
And,
Eventually, she reveals them via txt messages.
Everything they had wanted to keep hidden
She has all her friends right where she wants them.
Dancing to her tune.
However!
There is one complication.
Her boyfriend Hugh,no longer wants to be her boyfriend, having developed an attraction for Amy.
This causes a few tense moments and ripples amongst the group.
That eventually leads to Vivian’s game playing backfiring with shocking consequences.
This was an okay suspense thriller set in a gorgeous part of the world, but ultimately it didn’t really deliver at the end.
Possibly because I already picked the perpetrator 🤷🏻♀️
Who knows, but the three months later wrap up just lacked a decent twist for me

This was a fun audiobook! Mystery and drama all on a boat what more could you need!?

It was okay. It's definitely too long. Would have liked to see the point of view from the female antagonist.

Great story! Really had strong feelings for Veronica, she was very well written & I truly disliked her.

Nice balance of easy reading with an edge of thrill and drama to sink your teeth into

Hello, hello.
Now, this was a book I couldn't stop listening to. From prologue to epilogue it had me trying to piece everything together like a detective trying discover the truth. The story is pieced together from 4 different perspectives.
I can't say that the theme was unique because it is the type of theme we all see in shows, movies, and other books but I can't penalize the book for that because at the end of the day it kept me locked in.
It demonstrates what guilt, remorse, fear, envy, jealousy and regret does to a person. It shows how emotional and mental ties can keep us delusionally loyal to someone.
Games, manipulation, gaslighting, the personality flip when your life hangs in the balance. How quick people can be for you or against you. A book that questions who to trust and who not to trust but also makes you question if you can even trust yourself when push comes to shove.
Highly recommend.

I kept waiting for the big climax or the shock or the swell of energy. Spoilers alert - it never came. Thank goodness for distinct, individual narrators on Audible to keep all the chapter POVs straight. I am so thankful my friends aren’t this shallow and spiteful and entitled. The setting was great and lavish so it felt like an escape. This really could have been a short story.

what if we put rich people in a situation

Entitled, rich, hideous young people on a boat. The secrets weren't that shocking and my mystery wasn't that interesting. Listened on audio and narration was good.

There’s a reason why this book and indeed the rest of this author’s books, are free on Audible. I mean, could anyone seriously be expected to pay for them? Maybe an impulse purchase; maybe the cover image might suck someone in. But after just a few pages surely they’d be wanting their money back. I know I would.
I’m not sure why this book is so bad. The writing is, I want to say boring but that’s not especially helpful. The writing is transactional, that’s it: everything is of one dimension, flat, uninteresting. There’s no lyricism to the writing, no depth, no mystery. The sea is azure; the cliffs are craggy; the clouds are fluffy; the toast is dry; the stars are bright in a night sky. It’s all perfunctory, shallow, superficial. Like writing a novel is a paint by numbers exercise.
It’s as if the author has been told by her English teacher she’s ‘not bad’ at writing. And so she decides to write, writing with the impetus from what she’s read of other authors; or more likely—from the evidence of the simplistic juvenile plot in Mayday—seen in TV dramas. So we end up with a genre whodunit that is derivative, a story that tells the reader what’s happening at every juncture instead of leaving us with questions, a keenness to keep reading, to resolve the puzzles on the page. But there is nothing left unsaid in this book, just a functional storyline, as if it’s written by a sixteen year old school kid who watches too much TV.
Four 20 something, entitled, rich kid graduates on a boat off the tropical coast of Queensland, one is a murderer. It takes the author over eight interminable hours to pursue this all too predictable plot line.
The teacher in me wants to correct her tortuous prose. Her character Amy ‘can taste his saltiness with her lips’. She needs to ‘breathe in great gulps of air with her mouth’. And she could ‘feel the sound of the hairs in her ears’, wanting ‘to load my guilt with carbs.. her body ‘is scarily dehydrated..’ Come on. This is pure unedited guff. The stuff of a school girl. The stuff of an inexperienced would-be writer who has a long way to go before she should ever publish anything. It’s the stuff of a bad soap opera.
The commercial blurb describes this book and its author as ‘bestselling’. I’m pretty sure this author will never write anything approximating a bestseller. There is most certainly nothing bestselling about this book. To be frank, I’m more than a little surprised this author found a publisher at all.
If you want to read a whodunit, a thriller, choose a Graham Norton or even a Richard Osman. These authors understand what it takes to write well, to write sparingly, and to write knowingly.
I said I found this book not so much boring as transactional, shallow, flat. But actually it is boring. You’d wish you’d never started it.

I’ve listened to this book on Audible a day or two after I finished the recording of The Vacation. And until about five minutes ago, I was absolutely convinced that the author of The Christmas Party was the author of this book. It felt like the same plot, (except in summer on a yacht) where an annoying, privileged person who insists on her own way forces people to do what she wants…and they don’t slap her! Whoops, no they do—someone did get slapped in this book; sorry for the spoiler.
In any event, I’m too old to read about people who are maybe 22 or 23 at most living a life of privilege at a resort and then on a yacht while there’s so much tension and discomfort in the group. They’re drunk all the time, they’re doing coke, they’re eating lots of food—OK maybe that’s where I want to live vicariously. I will admit there was a lot visually going on in my head while I was reading it and it felt like a more interesting setting than the Amalfi Coast in the Audible Original. But I have a 26 year-old daughter, whose life sounds more interesting this, and she’s in the upper peninsula of Michigan building cabins. I just can’t relate to any of it.
And yet, there were definitely a lot of twists and turns and stuff that was interesting to me with the mystery part of it so I kept going until it was done. The ending was satisfying. The voice actors were interesting in that when they would do the other characters’ voices, they would try and mimic those accents. So we had a variety of Australian accents and a variety of American accents, and you knew who was speaking one because when the Australian was doing the American accent, she put a lot of R in the words. And when the British person was trying to do the Australian accent, she made it over the top. I found this part kind of interesting and I could always tell who is speaking because of that.

For a book full of twists, this one ended with a real doozy! It was interesting having each chapter in a different character's voice and seeing the story from so many different perspectives. It got to the point where I began anticipating hearing what so-and-so thought after ending another chapter.
I liked the mix of characters: blend of genders, nationalities and socioeconomic classes. The author did a pretty good job of keeping each character authentic to their particular place in the group. It seems challenging to take three young women and two young men who have just shared the last four years in the same college lifestyle and make them distinct.
In some ways, I was surprised at the lack of rivalry in certain relationships, but as the story progressed it became more clear that even though they had all shared college life, many of them really did not have intimate ties with each other. They were more situational relationships, which we don't often find in this type of mystery.
Overall, I enjoyed the book, the adventure, the setting and the relationships. I enjoyed the fluctuations that took place and the twists that had alliances changing along the way.

Audiobook
Brilliantly written and easy listening.
It was easy to visualise each character from the clear descriptions
Loved the name Vivienne La Rue, it rolls of the lips so easily But the same can’t be said of her character.
Vivienne a spoilt rich demanding diva with her boyfriend Hugo, Daniel her wealthy childhood friend and Little Ams her best friend who sees the best in her. And Daniel’s girlfriend Cecelia.
The storyline bounces from each characters personality and life so seamlessly it was easy and compelling to follow. It’s easy to get lost and confused if there are too many characters in a story but Holly Craig had this balanced just right.
The story weaves across the waves through copious amounts of drugs, sex and alcohol, beautiful and well educated individuals set sail on a luxurious yacht. But instead of the exciting trip to the islands around the Whitsundays Vivienne wants to play games, blackmailing her friends into submission.
A suspense story with a murder that happens when you’re not expecting it, that’s so intriguing, I wasn’t expecting a murder to occur at all.

this suspenseful story gripped me from the first page to the last. all the voice actors did a phenomenal job and really transport you to london and australia, making this likely a more enjoyable listen than read. as a bonus, this was available in the audible library for no additional cost. although the plot is a little too similar to something i have enjoyed from another author before (see: Reckless Girls), i still enjoyed this fresh setting, secretive cast of characters, nonstop blackmail, and mounting tension. this book shines a spotlight on how people can leverage their wealth to control people, pitting them against one another or even forcing them to act out of character in the name of promised favors or prizes. on the contrary, they can use their wealth to threaten people and weaponize their power. there were twists around every corner, and i was ready to watch them crash ashore.

Suspension of Disbelief Needed Here
This is an interesting tale of several college students, several of whom are outrageously wealthy. The leader of this pack of graduating students offers to take her personal posse on a once-in-a-lifetime vacation. It might be all fantastic if said leader weren't a raging narcissist who always gets her way.
This would be a 4-star read, but for me personally, there was just too much suspension of disbelief to overcome here. At first, I credited this with the very obvious fact that these were seniors graduating from college who were drinking and doping nearly continuously. Therefore, their judgment would definitely be off. Some of them also have the horrible habit of allowing the antagonist to always have her way, even when it's a terrible idea.
But for me, it just became too much. If you have no issue with implausible situations, then I say go for it-- it's an interesting story.

This was a 3-star read for me. The only somewhat likable character was Amy. Everyone else was insufferable, self-centered, and greedy. Vivian is a full-blown psychopath. Even Amy’s innocence, while well-intentioned, was more frustrating than endearing.
The pacing kept my attention, and I liked how the changing perspectives created small cliff hangers throughout. I was surprised by the twist. The ending felt abrupt, but I think that was intentional. It is the journey that matters, not the destination.
If you enjoy stories filled with unlikable characters, you’ll probably find this entertaining. For the rest of us, the plot is what keeps us going. I’d recommend it as an easy beach listen, especially since it is available in the Audible Plus catalog without using a credit.

Mayday was everything I want in a thriller—fast-moving, dramatic, and packed with tension. From the moment the story took off, I was hooked and didn’t stop until I hit the last page. The mix of conflict, suspense, and emotional drama made this a completely addictive read.
What stood out to me most was how the pressure kept mounting. Just when I thought the characters might get a break, another layer of chaos was added, and it kept me racing ahead to see how it would all end. The finale was bold, dramatic, and absolutely worth the ride.
Even though the overall Goodreads rating sits closer to three stars, for me this was an easy five. Pure entertainment, high tension, and an ending that left me more than satisfied.

“Write what you know” is very standard writing advice, and yet Craig seems to think she can write about the lives of the wealthy despite having no meaningful insights whatsoever. The characters barely reach the height of one dimensional, and their entire personalities can be summed up in one word. Toff, Poor, American and Bland all holiday with Manipulator to Australia; where to her credit Craig does paint a picture well of the landscapes.
“Show don’t tell” is some more ignored advice. The first person chapters are clumsy as each character takes turns to drunkenly stumble through their primitive thought patterns.
Honestly, I don’t know what the point of this book was. Unless it was funded by the Australian tourism board.

December 27, 2025I have to give credit to the narrators, the voice acting was the highlight of the experience. They delivered a high-energy, engaging performance that managed to keep me listening even when the plot began to waver. While the setup was intriguing, the pacing felt off. I kept waiting for a major turning point or a high-stakes payoff, but the story lacked a true climax.
The ending felt incredibly flat, leaving many threads dangling in a way that didn't feel intentional or satisfying. For a thriller, you expect a punch at the end, but this felt more like a slow fade-out. Great narration, but a lackluster conclusion.

Easy listen. The characters were hard to keep up with at first but once you get into them they are not that interesting. I get that this is supposed to be a bunch of rich idiots playing crazy”games” but the games are dumb, the prizes are ridiculous, and I couldn’t seem to grasp any of why everyone is allowing this one lady to ruin their lives. Also the story is shallow it doesn’t explain the true background on Vivian. The ending doesn’t mention an investigation or any family concern for the victim. I just thought it was ok.

This was my first time reading anything by this author. I enjoyed this book and plan to read others she has written.
The characters were all well developed, though not necessarily likeable. The plot moves quickly and has a good ending.
At first, I had a hard time keeping the characters straight, but once I figured out who was who, I enjoyed the book even more. If you're not looking for anything too deep, which I wasn't after reading Wally Lamb's The River is Waiting, then this a good one to pick up. It'll keep you till the very end.
