Belle thinks she's going to get a free trip with her girlfriends. As a struggling actress, she could use the break and a week on a giant yacht in the Mediterranean seems like exactly what she needs. That is, until she realizes that every movement on the ship is scheduled and scrutinized. The ship has no WiFi, and her only access to the outside world is one computer that's clearly being monitored. Is she just being paranoid, or is something sinister going on? This fun, frothy thriller was a blast! Can't get away from the summer? This is the next best thing! - John
Also HIGHLY recommended by McKenna!
