Review:

Mystery thriller isn't my normal genre read but when a good storyline like secret society meets exclusive yacht trip including two former friends, I was intrigued. Naya and Yana are inducted into an exclusive society and embark on an extravagant trip to Bermuda that quickly takes a turn for the worst. When secrets,and scandals start to surface, someone on board goes to any lengths to keep it from coming to full light. Unfortunately, death of classmmates on board is how far the killer will go and the girls must find out who it is before they become another casualty in this murder mystery at sea.
