‘Hide’ – Nell Pattison

By Book-worm | My Good Reads | 5 Dec 2021


Seven friends head out into the nature reserve where Lauren works. One of the group, Alec, is shot and so begins a tense few hours as they try to work out who was responsible.

We are told fairly on that a number of the group have secrets they are wanting to keep quiet. Alec has, we know, let the group know he is aware of some of the things they’re hiding and so the possibilities for who might have killed him are fairly high.

From the outset we have a fairly claustrophobic setting. As the characters split up to try and find their way to safety we know that time is of the essence. The various characters are developed a little, though I did feel we were deliberately kept out of the loop a little.

Thanks to NetGalley for giving me the chance to read this prior to publication.
