"An annual backpacking trip has deadly consequences in a chilling new novel from the bestselling author of The Lost Night and The Herd. Emily is having the time of her life--she's in the mountains of Chile with her best friend, Kristen, on their annual reunion trip, and the women are feeling closer than ever. But on the last night of their trip, Emily enters their hotel suite to find blood and broken glass on the floor. Kristen says the cute backpacker she'd been flirting with attacked her, and she had no choice but to kill him in self-defense. Even more shocking: The scene is horrifyingly similar to last year's trip, when another backpacker wound up dead. Emily can't believe it's happened again--can lightning really strike twice? Back home in Wisconsin, Emily struggles to bury her trauma, diving head-first into a new relationship and throwing herself into work. But when Kristen shows up for a surprise visit, Emily is forced to to confront their violent past. The more Kristen tries to keep Emily close, the more Emily questions her friend's motives. As Emily feels the walls closing in on their coverups, she must reckon with the truth about her closest friend. Can she outrun the secrets she shares with Kristen, or will they destroy her relationship, her freedom--even her life?"--… (meer)

Pretty good, but the beginning definitely dragged ( )

I'm really surprised at how much I enjoyed this and truly surprised with how well this was written; while the ending was tidy (maybe a bit too tidy), I loved the build up to the major conflict.

Like books about books, this girl absolutely STANS an unreliable narrator. ( )

The story line is interesting. Emily and her friend Kristen are friends from college. They decide to spend their savings travelling around the world together. But after two murders they return to the United States and aim to not get caught. But one of them discovers that the other has more than two suspicious deaths in their past. How can their friendship last and how can they not get caught?
The overall story had an interesting plot. The first half of the book was interesting with the changes in settings, learning the characters, and of the murders.
The last half of the book is where it went downhill. The main characters are very weak in their own ways and the story became horribly predictable at every page turn. Was looking for a great ending but didn’t really get it. One bit of action at the end that was slightly surprising but also not. The story overall became unrealistic. Needed more action, stronger characters, and a more believable ending.

★★ Honestly I wouldn’t recommend. There’s much better psychological thrillers out there. ( )

Felt slow to start, but once I caught on I couldn’t put it down! Read the book in a day!! ( )

I wasted time getting to page 90 in this book. The premise was ridiculous, the characters were unappealing and the repetitive writing was wearying. Not sure what I missed when I read some of the glowing reviews, but I had to put it down before I found out why. ( )
