Never underestimate how much people can change…
It’s been years since Zoe last saw them – since they graduated, drifted apart, and lost touch.
Years since Zoe ended things with Dan because the memories were too painful to bear.
Years since that night – the night an unexpected death shattered their close-knit group of friends.
Now, Zoe is invited to Scotland for a wedding – a grand affair at a manor house on a remote island.
Apprehensive about the reunion, she hopes the long drive with Lily will help ease her nerves.
But things are far from simple. Lily has also agreed to give Dan a lift, and Rod, not wanting to be left out, is joining them as well, along with his fiancée.
And when they come into trouble on a cold, dark, desolated Highland road, it sets off a chain of events which will leave them all shaken to their very core, and questioning everything they thought
they knew…
An unsettling and unputdownable edge-of-your-seat thriller set in the eerie mists of Scotland, perfect for fans of The Hunting Party by Lucy Foley

My thoughts: this was a good one, clever, twisting and suspenseful. Reuniting with a group of old friends, with history between them and secrets makes everything a little tense when they’re in Lily’s dad’s old car.
Zoe is a lawyer and dealing with a workplace fling gone horribly wrong, Lily is her high school best friend, with a little secret of her own, Dan was her teenage boyfriend, Rod another friend, who’s getting married and has invited them all along. But between them is the accidental death of their friend Saul, an incident that has bound them together but also driven a wedge between them all.
Bella, Rod’s fiancée, doesn’t really fit in with the group and things about her don’t quite add up. As they drive up to the Highlands to catch the ferry to Jura for the wedding events take a nasty turn.
With events bringing the past crashing into the present, and secrets spilling out of everyone, will their friendships survive?
