My Review
I started reading this at night. It felt fitting as the story began with a camping trip and scary stories being told around the campfire. I could see the ghoulish faces cause by the light from the wavering flames. Hear the boys breathes quickening as the story gained momentum. Feel their hearts starting to race. Or was it mine?
The moment I read the blurb I was hooked. What could be scarier than being in the wilderness, knowing that disappearances and strange mutilations have occurred there, but still thinking it won’t happen to me. So, when someone disappears, knowing you have no business being out their in the first place flies out the window. It’s now a fight for survival against something terrible and unknown.
The author set this up well. After you learn the ins and out of the characters places in the group, the true nature of the story begins. There’s a good mystery in these pages. The feeling of isolation and desperation are on target. There’s something truly evil that I didn’t expect. And the ending. Well…..you’ll just have to read it.
A good one for a dark and stormy night.

Synopsis
It begins with a ghost story around a campfire. Teenagers out on a walking trip, trying to act brave in front of each other.
But as the walk gets underway and the boys begin to fall out, odd things start to happen.
Noises in the night. A severed rabbit’s foot outside someone’s tent.
Soon, the boys begin to disappear.
As panic sets in and a storm approaches, the remaining boys must band together to face a darkness not even the local ghost stories could help them predict.
