The Next One to Fall by Hilary Davidson

3.0

Lily Moore is on a vacation in Peru with her friend Jesse to escape a tragedy in her life when she comes across a fallen woman on Machu Picchu who claims her boyfriend tried to kill her. The police however believe the woman to be a drug addict and don't follow up on the lead.

Lily sets off to uncover the mystery of the the woman's death and finds herself being bribed & abducted with hers and Jesse's lives on the line. Trapped in the web of a wealthy and influential American family whose members each have their own dark intentions we are kept guessing who is really at fault in the death of the female tourist.

The Next One to Fall is enjoyable for its rich descriptions of an exotic location and the development of characters, their relationships and motivations.

I didn't read the first book in the series but there was enough recap from the first book for it not to matter too much. Where will our travel writer protagonist find herself next?
