★★★☆☆ 3/5
The Surfacing started with promise but quickly became slow and drawn out. It felt like it was trying too hard to be suspenseful, with only a few twists that didn’t land as powerfully as intended.
The present-tense writing style made it harder to get into, and overall the pacing lacked momentum. That said, the narrator did a good job and kept me listening even when the plot dragged.
Not terrible, but not memorable either.
Premise:
It’s been twelve years since teenager Peter Ferguson drowned in Loch Ness while Stephanie’s family were camping by the shore. Now, as her estranged sister Aurélie prepares to wed, Stephanie returns for the wedding—only to find old suspicions bubbling back up. As drink flows and long‑held secrets start to surface, the festive weekend becomes a tense battleground of guilt, silence, and the search for truth .
