As with all his books, this is dark and then dark some more. Lauren and Tom are camping in the New Forest when one morning Lauren awakes with a splitting headache to find Tom is missing. Thank you for my copy sent in return for an honest and unbiased review. Other new characters really gave it that edge and moved things along nicely.

Later on his body is found and the cause of death declared to be death by blood loss due to crossbow arrows penetrating his body. He really is one of the top authors for taking an innocent place, The New Forest for goodness sake, with its trees and areas of recreation – and then turning it into something really dark and creepy. I received a complimentary copy of this novel from publisher Penguin through my membership of NetGalley.

When she is found murdered and strung up in the depths of the forest, Helen feels chilled to the very core. It’s a 4. Helen seems to be having a nicer time on the personal front thank goodness – this was the only ray of sunshine in that dark dark forest.
