The Token
Linked by a secret and seduced by the fortune of a billionaire, seven strangers board a ship to a remote island. Will anyone make it back to shore alive?
'Bolton's dazzling plot recalls Christie at her most inventive' - Sunday Times
The billionaire's will promised them everything. But the money comes with a deadly price . . .
Seven strangers receive a mysterious note that billionaire Logan Quick is leaving them his vast fortune. All they need to do is accept the enclosed Token and wait for his death. None of them know why they've been chosen, but all seven desperately need the money and the chance of a fresh start.
When the group are forced to embark on a dangerous sea crossing, they discover they are connected by a dark secret from their past. As confusion turns to fear and trust to betrayal, the question is no longer who will claim the money - it's who will make it off the boat alive . . .
The Token is the latest compelling thriller from Sharon Bolton, the bestselling author of The Pact and The Split.
