Publisher's Synopsis
A night beneath the stars, a few steps away from murder...
Jo doesn't like camping but her trepidation about a guided hiking trip with her husband is offset by the promise of a rewarding pampering afterwards at a luxury spa.
The walk starts well. The moorland scenery is stunning. But on reaching higher ground, another hiker stumbles on some scree and careers into Jo, almost sending her over a steep edge.
She can't help but feel he did it deliberately. And to add insult to injury, her husband seems to take the man's side.
During the evening an argument brews around the campfire. To Jo's horror, the next morning a member of the group is found dead.
What was meant to be a relaxing time in nature is now a fight for survival, and Jo must make a critical choice about whom to trust.
