She and her twin have never lost contact until, on a trip to a Portuguese national park, Kier vanishes without a trace. Detective Elin Warner arrives in the same park ready to immerse herself in its vast wilderness--only to hear about Kier's disappearance, and discover a disturbing map she left behind. The few strangers at an isolated campsite close ranks against Elin's questions, and the park's wild beauty starts to turn sinister. Elin must untangle the clues to find out what really happened to Kier. But when you follow a trail, you have to be careful to watch your back Why Jade Recommends it: This is book 3 in the Elin Warner series, and I'd say the best so far. This is a detective series for people who like a lot of detail in their reading-- you've got to pay attention to all of the little details in this series.  Pearse does a good job weaving the tragic stories of the crime victims into the personal life of our Detective, which makes me more invested in the outcome than some other series. This would be a good choice for those who like Tana French, Anna Downes, or Rachel Hawkins. --------------------------------------------------- Images: --------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- Post date: 2024-10-03 11:51:50 Post date GMT: 2024-10-03 15:51:50 Post modified date: 2024-10-03 11:51:52 Post modified date GMT: 2024-10-03 15:51:52 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Export of Post and Page as text file has been powered by [ Universal Post Manager ] plugin from www.gconverters.com
