Synopsis:
Seven friends. One killer. You can run, but you can’t hide…
The Boxing Day hike is meant to bring their nature group together.
Emily, the sister who never lets her hearing loss hold her back.
Lauren, the sister who always feels a step behind.
Morna, who doesn’t get on with Lauren.
Ben, whose feelings for Emily border on obsession.
Dan, the quiet newcomer to the group.
Kai, who isn’t just on the hike to enjoy the wildlife.
And Alec, the one who knows all their secrets.
As the sun sets, a gunshot rings out on the nature reserve.
One of the seven is dead. And one of their number killed them…
Review:
Unfortunately this one just wasn’t for me.
I really wanted to love it as the cover and description really drew me in but it just fell so flat for me (especially the ending).
I felt like I couldn’t really get to know the characters at all and the story was from all the varying points of view, which made it a little muddled for me.
I ended up skimming large parts of it just to see if it picked up.
A disappointing 2 stars from me.
Good review, sorry to hear the book didn’t work out! Such a shame if the inside of a great-looking book/story is a disappointment.
