Couldn’t put this down and read it in one night. It wasn’t mind blowing but I was kept guessing until the end. Didn’t love as much as ‘The Dry’, but another good read by Jane Harper!

The pace builds as the plot progresses. Split pov, but didn't give spoilers.

Five women go on a multi-day hike team building exercise from work, only 4 come out of the wilderness. While search and rescue try to find her, in an area where memories of a serial killer have not yet faded, the women's relationships are looked into in more detail. Why did Alice go off on her own? Is the serial killer's son still at large in the area?
