This was a great mystery/thriller! Federal Detective Aaron Falk is a great character. Despite working in the financial crime unit, he has found himself on a much bigger case again. When ten coworkers set out for a 3-day, team-building camping adventure in the Australian bushland, something goes terribly wrong. Of the five women on the trip, only four return and no one knows what’s happened to Alice Russell. Agent Falk and his partner must work with the state police to support search-and-rescue and try to find Alice before it’s too late. Jane Harper writes a suspenseful, page-turning novel without anything being too graphic or scary. It’s my favorite kind of thriller, and I can’t wait to read the third installment of the Aaron Falk books.
