    JAN 2023 : 5 STARS

    DESCRIPTION: A young British backpacker goes missing on the West Coast Trail. No one is sure whether she died or simply disappeared. Apart from Laura.
    Twenty years later, a body has been found. And there’s only one person who could reveal the secret that Laura’s been hiding all this time. But she knows that two can keep a secret. IF ONE OF THEM IS DEAD.

    REVIEW: First three books by this author were The Girl Who Left (‘22 - 4 Stars), Before I Let You In (‘16 - Read 18 - 4 Stars) and How I Left You (‘14 - Read ‘18 - 5 Stars). Story jumps right in alternating between the hiking trip and present day - 20 years later. Since someone has changed their name, trying to figure out who I think it is. Love the cliffhanger endings of some of the chapters. Present day chapters kept me on the edge of my seat. Great writing to combine the past and present to get an awesome ending.

    I enjoyed the book, BUT it always felt like the REAL story would start somewhere. It finally did and the hook was a hook, but not worth putting up with the many unlikeable characters. Good characterization- I didn't like any of them.

    Not recommended.

    Its a murder mystery full of twists you will not see coming. Just when you think you have each of the characters in the story figured out, some new twist enters onto the scene.

    The hiking trip is where several young hikers meet each other and all is not as it seems. We follow the current life of one of the women who has married and has two small children. She believes she has caused one of the men she knew before to go to prison by not coming forward to tell the truth. We don’t know the truth, nor does she until the end. I have not read this author before. I will read more from her.

    The trip of a lifetime ends in murder

    Back in 1999 nineteen year old Maisie is about to leave the UK for a hiking trip along the West Coast Trail in Vancouver with her friend Ruth but, as usual, Ruth lets her down at the last minute, so Maisie decides to go it alone. When she arrives she meets brother and sister Seraphine and Ric, who she spends the first few days walking the trail and camping with, but things go horribly wrong when Sera goes missing, presumed murdered. Fast forward to 2019 and we meet Laura, happily married to Rob with two children, Faye and George. Life is good until she hears the words she's been dreading for all these years; 'Human remains found' and Laura's world comes crashing down around her, is her secret about to be revealed and how far will she go to protect the new life she's built?

    The Hiking Trip is a dual timeline, told in the main by Maisie and Laura, alternating between 1999 and 2019, it's a great premise with some interesting, but not always pleasant, characters. This is a fast paced thriller, with short chapters, just how I like them and plenty of twists along the way, but one particular twist had me swiping back to check if I'd misread something because I was convinced, up to that point, that I knew where this was going and I was so wrong! I've been a huge fan of Blackhurst's books ever since I read her first, How I Lost You, back in 2015 and she is well known for her jaw dropping twists. If you love a thriller that will keep you second guessing throughout, then The Hiking Trip is one for you, and then go back and read her others.

    I enjoyed reading this book. I wish the author would have have use the correct location of the trail, and not just British Columbia, Vancouver. As a someone who is from the island the trail is located on, that was the biggest disappointment for me and the reason I only gave 4 stars.
