A team building exercise in the wilderness of Australia goes wrong. Jane Harper's books are the best kids of mysteries: character-drive and a bit creepy. Agent Falk is dermined but kind and has a nice cathartic experience. All of Jane Harper's books are A+.

“A company team-building weekend in the thick Australian bush goes awry when the women's team gets lost. Hidden feelings between team members complicate their mission to get back to the camp. When four of the five return, they each have a different story about what happened to Alice. After his debut in The Dry, Aaron Falk returns to solve this mystery and resolve some personal issues, but this time we have wet, cold wind creating the most miserable conditions imaginable for those who are lost, hungry, and quickly becoming suspicious of each other. The complicated plot, edge-of-your-seat suspense, and vivid description of the rugged Giralang Ranges will keep you breathless.”
