‘A brilliantly fresh and clever thriller… perfectly creepy’ Philippa East
‘Heart-pounding thriller that left me on the edge of my seat… Definitely one of the best books this year.’ NetGalley reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Four of them went to the hotel
Four students travel to Ravencliffe, an eerie abandoned hotel perched on steep cliffs on the Welsh coast. After a series of unexplained accidents, only three of them leave. The fourth, Leo, disappears, and is never seen again.
Only three of them came back
A decade on, the friends have lost contact. Oscar is fame-hungry, making public appearances and selling his story. Richard sank into alcoholism and is only just recovering. Bex just wants to forget – until one last opportunity to go back offers the chance to find out what really happened to Leo.
Ten years later, they return one last time
But as soon as they get to the hotel things start going wrong again. Objects mysteriously disappear and reappear. Accidents happen. And Bex realises that her former friends know far more than they are letting on about the true events at Ravencliffe that night…

Bex, Richard, Oscar and Leo were filming in the haunted Ravencliffe Hotel. They were 18 at the time. One person is missing. Almost ten years have passed since then. What happened there then? I'd love to know. Will Bex go to RavenCon 10? Someone is stalking her. The nightmare of ten years ago returns. Our heroine is terrified. Will she learn the truth about Leo's disappearance? Leo's father, Mr. Finch, advises her not to return to that cursed hotel. "I'm going back. Finally. I'm sorry it's taken so long. But I promise this time I'll do whatever it takes to find out what happened to you." Bex, Oscar and Richard are reunited after ten years. How did they react to each other? Were they nice or rather rough? We go back ten years. And we get to know their stories. Leo and Bex were real friends. Together they loved novels and horror movies. They chose an old and haunted hotel in West Wales to shoot the film. It was supposed to be fun and scary. Leo didn't like Richard. It was supposed to be a trip just Leo with Bex. How did Oscar and Richard end up there too? Was Leo happy about that? Were either of them responsible for his disappearance? Or was it the haunted hotel that drew Leo in? An interesting suspense thriller. While reading this book, I was very scared at times. I would be afraid to visit a haunted hotel. I like the Louise Mumford pen. I am looking forward to another work by this author. If you like thrillers with a thrill, then be sure to reach for "The Hotel". You will not be disappointed. The ending was a bit shocking. I admit, I even shed tears. A very exciting story. These books are worth reading.
