About the Book:
When nineteen-year-old Maisie takes off on the trip of a
lifetime, leaving behind her demanding family, her only thought is of
freedom.
Hiking the West Coast Trail in Canada, she soon meets Ric
and Sera. But what began as a fun-filled adventure quickly turns sour, with
devastating consequences…
Twenty-five years later, a woman named Laura is panicked to
learn that a body has been found near the trail. The police suspect the remains
to be of missing backpacker, Sera.
The secret Laura’s been hiding for a quarter of a century is
about to come out – and someone is determined to make sure she tells the truth,
and pays the price.
Laura will do anything to protect her family and the life
she’s crafted for herself. It’s a race against time and a question of: who has
the most to lose?
Book Review:
A dual timeline book 20 years apart tells the story of a hiking trip gone wrong. Maisie’s new friend is murdered on the hiking trip and she is the star witness. The dual timeline feeds in snippets from the hiking trip as Maisie tries to keep her current life from falling apart. I was hooked on this story and could not put it down. This is a great psychological thriller!
