Publisher's summary

A small hiking group in the wilderness - with bloody revenge for company

Milly has barely spoken to her sister Judith in years. They hardly exchanged a word at their mother's funeral. They could not be further apart. So when Milly gets an invitation to go on a hiking trip, she hopes it will be an opportunity for reconciliation. Inviting her school-friend Harper along with her for support, the small party head off together into the bush.

What awaits Milly is far from just a bracing hike in the wilderness, but an unexpected encounter with the past. The form it takes is revenge. But who is enacting it against Milly, and why?

Good grief—-intense

This book was about relationships, while on the run from some very determined killers. I give this book marks for being realistic, never boring, just enough drama and plenty of action. Get it. :)

Gripping

This book is about the relationship and secrets of two sisters amidst a crisis in a rugged wilderness. I don't usually like books that jump back and forth in time, but it was minimal here, and only enough to understand the background as much as necessary, piece by piece. It did not detract from the main story, which took place in the present.

This author is very skilled at creating believable characters and not letting anything get in the way of the story she has to tell. Her fiction is more realistic than most, since her protagonists have their demons, even though they are mostly good. And you don't always get the most optimal happy endings with little pink bows on top (not saying what happens in this one). I wish she would release audiobooks of all her works, and get Cat Gould to narrate them!
