This was a good thrilling read. I was holding my breath during this book. The classic case of "who do you trust" that never gets old in a good thriller. I loved the setting of Alabama (Birmingham and the Auburn campus) it was a nice change from a big New York or Miami Beach setting which seems to be where a lot of suspense books I read take place. I was very lucky to read this book while I was sitting off of the same Caribbean island in the story where Erin is sent to take a break. Of course, the actual resort was fictitious but it was very easy to understand the vivid description of the island scenery and terrain since it is very accurate to the real thing. The relationship with Shorie and Erin is troubled at the time of the beginning story but you realize it is a solid mother/daughter relationship. I would love to read another Emily Carpenter book. Thank you to Net Galley for an ARC copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Wow! This book was a fast paced, thrilling adventure! I loved every bit!!!

Emily Carpenter created some amazing characters. First, there's Perry. He was tragically killed in car accident. At least, that's what we THINK happened. Then, there's his wife, Erin, who is having trouble recovering since Perry's death. She's throwing herself into work at their tech company/app called Jax, but is considering selling it off....except that would need the approval of her and Perry's best friends, Sabrine and Ben, who are their partners and co-creators. And THEN, there is Shorie, Erin and Perry's daughter. She loved working alongside her dad and wants nothing more than to continue with Jax, but is expected to start her freshman year at Auburn.

At the suggestion (intervention) of her friends and family, Erin goes to seek restoration (rehabilitation) at Hidden Sands on a remote Caribbean island. But, what starts as restoration quickly turns deadly. And everything is not as it seems. Are Erin's friends really that? Or is someone orchestrating something behind the scenes?

This book took me on a Survivor-esque trip to the Caribbean. And once the gun started shooting, I couldn't put this book down. It's my first read from Emily Carpenter and, now, I am a big fan. Hopefully this one becomes a movie!

I am really enjoying all Emily Carpenter's books. She tells a great story.

This latest book, Until the Day I Die, tells the tale of an overworked widow with a daughter preparing to start Auburn University. Having recently experienced the death of her husband and partner in a startup, Erin is waffling between feeling daily pain and having to continue her high achieving at work.

Eventually, with the help of Shorie (her daughter), an intervention is held and Erin is sent to the Caribbean for a rest and to relax. Once there however, things are very different from the massages and spa treatments Erin has been expecting.

Meanwhile Shorie, newly at college is juggling a new love interest, a new roommate, and a mystery of her own as she searches for her late father's journal.

I adored all Emily Carpenter's books so far, and this does not change my opinion. I thought the switching of perspectives from Erin to Shorie was handled deftly, and I found the book so intriguing I read it in less than a day.

Thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley.com for my advanced copy.

In Until the Day I Die, Emily Carpenter proves once again she’s a thriller powerhouse. Packed with heroines you’ll cheer for, villains you’ll love to hate, and plot twists galore, this story will have you on the edge of your seat until you breathlessly turn the last page. What a ride!

Whoa what a ride! I have to say when I first started reading this book, it was taking me a bit to get into it. I wasn't feeling well and knew this can't be right as this is one of my FAVORITE authors so let me come back to it tomorrow. I am so glad I did as I was totally blown away. I could not turn the pages fast enough during the second half of this book. A lot of thrilling action that kept me on the edge of my seat. Great book, don't miss this one! Thanks to Netgalley and the Publisher for the ARC

I’m just waiting for Carpenter to get the attention she deserves, she writes stories that make me chew my nails to the quick and the hair on the back of my neck stand straight up. In her latest, Erin Graves is having an almost impossible job coping with the death of her husband. The tech company the couple started together is doing astoundingly well, so Erin allows her friends and family to persuade her to book a vacation in the Caribbean. Meanwhile, her daughter Shorie is worried less about her mother’s state of mind than she is with the trustworthiness of her business colleagues. And in her island paradise, Erin is suffering from the same worries and the feeling that she can trust no one. This review doesn’t do Carpenter’s book justice, just read it and I promise you will be completely riveted

Seductively sinister, with a fierce, feisty mother-daughter duo you'll be cheering for. A fast, frightening read.

I swear I didn't breathe for the second half of this book. Emily Carpenter is the master of creepy, unpredictable suspense, keeping me glued to the pages with the back-and-forth between mother and daughter's chapters. Though the mother gets much of the action spotlight in this story, the real star IMO was the daughter, Shorie. a young woman who's as smart as she is spunky. And the ending...OMG the ending. Emily, can we get a book 2?
