THE PERFECT DAY FOR A HIKE

Seeking the escape of a lifetime, four friends hike out into the beautiful Norwegian wild – nothing between them and the mountain peak but forest, sea and sharp blue sky.

THE PERFECT PLACE TO DISAPPEAR

But there’s a darker side to the wilderness. A woman went missing here one year ago. Now the friends are hiking into the heart of the mystery. And waiting on the trail is someone who’d do anything to keep their secrets buried – and to stop the group walking away alive . . .

Loved it!

Really enjoyed this thrilling ride through the Norwegian mountains. I like books that have the chapters shared between all characters giving their perspective. Looked forward to hearing what happened next so finished it quickly. Lots of twists and turns.

Atmospheric

Wonderful delivery, I could listen to that voice all day. Story was very strong leading clearly but not obviously to an exciting finale.
Well described characters that I could relate to and landscape descriptions so clear, I thought I was there

Starts slow but stick with it

It was a slow burn but once I got into it, it really took off and was gripping. I can’t say I warmed to any of the characters, as they seemed a bit two dimensional but the description of the Norwegian landscape made me feel as if I were there. The narration was really good and added to the overall enjoyment of the book. Worth a listen, although not as bedtime reading otherwise you may be awake all night!

The 4 lead characters and gripping story.

I loved the lead characters and kind of redemption arc that one of the characters had. equally gripping, tragic, sad and uplifting. A perilous adventure with twists along the way. a little slow to get going but descriptive and well told. great stuff.
