This was an “on the edge of your seat” kinda story for me. Loved it. Thank you netgalley and publisher for this arc in exchange of an honest review. Sorry for the delay, I fell a little behind.

DNF at 65%, unfortunately. Nothing has happened up until this point except a pseudo-family reunion in a coastal home, and a ridiculous storm (that, to be frank, would have been way more believable as a snowstorm). There’s NO WAY that a coastal home would be shaking in the wind and having windows shatter page after page. Any New Englander could tell you that. Cliff houses are reinforced to the max.

There’s been no actual progress made on the mystery of who invited everyone; there are way too many ridiculous assumptions being made; and good gracious, the mom is a terrible human trying to kill Cal when he’s literally dying.

Perhaps one day I’ll go back and finish. But for now I’m putting it down. Every page reads like it’s an emergency…without differentiating what’s actually important so it all runs together.

This book started out strong and had me excited to read more. Then it became pretty predictible and fell flat. The characters are all unlikable, which actually made for an interesting read with all their secrets. Some of them felt underdeveloped and I wanted more of their side of the story. Overall this was just an ok read for me. Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an eARC of this bookl

Wowww this was a great twisty thriller. I flew through this and was on the edge of my seat the whole time. Love the premise of all being in a secluded home together and it was a really fun who-done-it. Can’t wait to keep an eye out for more books from the author.

One Night by Georgina Cross is a family drama/locked room mystery. The story is for the point of view of several different family members. This book made me very anxious because I had to know what happened and who did it! I read it at a breathtaking pace to get to the end and the final reveal. I enjoy locked room mysteries and this is one of the best! Add in a secluded house in Oregon and a devastating storm and you’ve got a very thrilling read! do yourself a favor and check out this complicated family drama/mystery/murder book! Thank you to the publisher and Net Galley for the advanced copy of this book. All opinions are my own.

I love locked room thrillers and I love Georgina Cross's books. This one really makes you think what would you do if you had a chance to get revenge for your child's murder.

I really wanted to get to this one, as it seemed interesting. The downfall was that I requested so many ARCs that I could not get to all of them before the book was archived. If I can find this somewhere for a reasonable price, I will try to get it!

4 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A family with 3 daughters. One turn up murdered after a local bonfire. Some one spends time in prison for the crime, but did they commit the murder? A classes locked room, who done it thriller. I would say this was a little bit of a slow burn but had my interest the whole time. I though I had it pinned done who done it and was completely blindsided by the ending

The premise of the book isn't different or unique but drew me in- while starting off strong the execution ultimately fell a bit flat. It's was a decent read but not terribly memorable

Thank you NetGalley for allowing me to receive this book for an honest review.

A family is devestated by the loss of their daughter Meghan. The question still remains, what happened the night Meghan died. Then they each get these red evenlpes that say to come to the designated location and they will find out what happened the night Meghan died. They all go tho this location i n search for answers.

This book is filled with twists and turns and keep you at the edge of your seat.

I really enjoyed this one. I loved all the little clues you got along the way while trying to figure everything out. The mom in this book drove me nuts!! she was kind of a psycho. Overall, a really good twisty thriller.

This book fell a bit short for me. Maybe I've read to many with the almost same plot. Someone dies. Someone goes to prison. That someone is innocent and someone seeks revenge.

While it started out pretty good and had me turning the pages by the end I was cringing. It just didn't keep me wanting more. I'm afraid this one just didn't do it for me.

Thank you NetGalley for this ARC.

This book had a great premise. It was like a modern day version of Clue. Nearly everyone is a suspect at some point. The shocking revelation has you thinking back to figure out what clues you may have overlooked. A great suspense read.

One night can change so many people’s lives. When Meg, the oldest of three girls, is found dead after a party, it turns the family’s lives upside down. Now ten years later they are gathered to learn the truth. So many secrets have been kept for ten years. What all will be revealed? This is a great mystery with interesting characters and several twists!

Really strong, interesting start that drew me in. But, it was over quickly and the story sputtered out as Meghan’s family debated on whether or not to save Cal so they could finally learn the truth or extract their revenge by letting him die.

It seemed really predictable to me, but maybe its because I read a lot of thriller/mysteries?

The beginning of this book had me so excited and set the stage for the perfect mystery/thriller. However, in the end this one kind of fell flat for me. I do love Georgina Cross's writing and look forward to future books of hers.

Ten years ago, Meghan died tragically at 17 years old. Her boyfriend, Cal, was convicted of her murder and sent to prison. He just got out of prison and all of Meghan's family members have been invited by an anonymous letter to a house on the coast to find out the truth about what happened. Then Cal gets into a car accident on the way to the house and the family is left to figure out the puzzle. Did Cal invite them all there? Should they try to save him? What really happened to Meghan?

What a twisty thriller! I loved the way this story unfolded. Definitely a quick good thriller if you're looking for a book that will keep you on the edge of your seat. You will not see the last three chapters coming.

Thank you to NetGalley and Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine for the ARC of One Night.

I like this one and felt that it was plotted and keep you guessing till the end . I love that Oregon was featured so prominently and was a character in itself . I will read more by this author
Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for letting me review this book

I really pushed myself to finish this particular book, it just felt so LONG!!!!!! The overall premise really grabbed me but as I started reading it just felt so forced for certain storylines. Specifically the Uncle Geoff storyline felt so unnecessary and honestly just stomach churning. I needed to suspend disbelief for the Cal storyline especially at the end. The ending while unexpected did not feel worth it, honestly I looked for spoilers online just to end the book. I did appreciate the description of the house and the surrounding area as it’s somewhere I would love to vacation.

One Night by Georgina Cross has all the elements of a great single location mystery/thriller- a tragic death, a family still in mourning, a series of mysterious letters, a secluded house, a nostalgic location, a raging storm. And it gets off to a great start with a creepy dinner table set up with place cards, etc. and the convicted killer released from jail and then knocked unconscious in a car accident.

Meghan’s family desperately want to find out the truth about her murder so they all arrive on the Oregon coast, beckoned by letters sent by an anonymous person promising to reveal the true killers identity. But what will the family do with the information? Turn it over to the authorities…or take matters into their own hands?

Cross does a great job building the suspense and creating a tight, tense atmosphere both in the house and between the family members. It’s just that once Cal (Meghan’s boyfriend who was convicted of the murder and just released) is dragged in unconscious and bleeding out, the story loses momentum.

The “should we let him die or save him” debate that becomes center-stage becomes tedious and boring. The reveal ends up not that shocking and in the end all the foreshadowing and suspenseful build up is wasted. It was a bit too predictable. One Night could be read in one (or two) night and it was enjoyable, but just don’t expect to be ‘wow’ed by the reveal. If you aren’t looking for a major “who-dun-it” and just want to go along for the ride, this is a just suspenseful enough to satisfy. But if you really like to be challenged to figure out the plot twist ending, this may disappoint. Random rating- 3/5. Thanks to @NetGalley and @Ballatine for the eARC in exchange for an honest review.
