Roz Nay was "off" in "The Offing".
😭😥😭

The book's premise was compelling:
Two young American women are pursued by an unknown villain(s) when working as yacht crew members in Australia.

WHY WAS "THE OFFING" OFF?

The storyline had waaay too many implausible plot holes:

1) Both cash-strapped young women lived in NYC and flew on impulse to Australia. (Huh???)
Flying from NYC to Australia is a very, very long and pricey trip.

2) SPOILER ALERTS:
One of the women had been branded by the other woman's boyfriend, yet she kept this secret. (Huh???)

3) One of the women lost her scholarship to NYU yet she never threatened to expose her professor for inappropriate behavior. (Huh???)

I listened to the audiobook read by Clare McConnell. Although Clare McConnell did a fine job with the narration, a full-cast narration would have been preferred.

Roz Nay is one of my go-to authors so perhaps my expectations were too high.
