Strange Tide is a devilishly clever thriller by Val McDermid, the bestselling author of the Bryant & May series. Set in a picturesque villa near Nice in the south of France, the story revolves around Hannah Carreras, a maid who works under strict instructions never to speak to the guests. Despite her hidden presence, Hannah possesses a remarkable ability to observe and witness events.
One day, while Hannah is tending to the pool, she catches a glimpse of the mistress, Summer, lounging by the pool, eagerly awaiting the arrival of her married lover, Steve. However, to Hannah's surprise, Steve arrives with his family in tow. Summer mysteriously disappears, and Steve claims he has no idea where she went. However, Steve's wife is not easily fooled and senses something amiss. As the local police begin to inquire about Summer's disappearance, the villa's occupants find themselves with something to hide.
Hannah, being the observant and astute individual she is, notices something peculiar the day Summer disappears. She observes broken glass and blood on the patio, which raises suspicions in her mind. Hannah begins to piece together the events leading up to Summer's disappearance, using her keen observation skills and unwavering determination.
As the story unfolds, Hannah becomes the sole witness to the truth, but her knowledge comes at a great price. She is relentlessly pursued by those who want to keep the truth hidden, and her life is put in danger. Despite the obstacles, Hannah refuses to back down and continues to search for the truth, driven by her moral compass and her desire for justice.
Strange Tide is a wickedly compulsive thriller that will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very last page. Val McDermid's intricate plot and well-developed characters make this a must-read for fans of mystery and suspense. With its stunning setting and gripping storyline, this book is sure to leave a lasting impression on anyone who loves a good thriller.
