Genre:- Crime

Blurb:- When nineteen-year-old Maisie takes off on the trip of a lifetime, leaving behind her demanding family, her only thought is of freedom.
 Hiking the West Coast Trail in Canada, she soon meets Ric and Sera. But what began as a fun-filled adventure quickly turns sour, with devastating consequences....
 Twenty-five years later, a woman named Laura is panicked to learn that a body has been found near the trail. The police suspect the remains to be of missing backpacker, Sera. 
 The secret Laura's been hiding for a quarter of a century is about to come out- and someone is determined to make sure she tells the truth, and pays the price.
 Laura will do anything to protect her family and the life she's crafted for herself. It's a race against time and a question of: who has the most to lose?

My Review:- I've enjoyed reading this book. The story is told by Maisie and Laura who are the same person in two different times in life. Maisie tells her side from 1999 while backpacking on the West Coast trail in Canada, while Laura is telling her story in 2019 with her husband and 2 children.  All Laura wants is for her life to stay as it is now, but the past does not want to. When things start to go wrong on a normal Saturday morning Laura doesn't expect for it to go so fast. I thought I knew what was going to happen but I was wrong, there are so many twist and turns to this story. I loved how the author added news reports, interviews, court recording, and a podcast into the story, it kept you guessing
