Sinossi
Gente di città. Smarriti senza i cellulari (che comunque non funzionano), incartati in attrezzature nuovissime, confusi davanti alle mappe. Sono dei colletti bianchi, colleghi in una società finanziaria, arrivati sulle Giralang Ranges per un trekking che affinando le tecniche di sopravvivenza dovrebbe cementare lo spirito di gruppo. Dopo qualche giorno, faccia a faccia con la natura rientrano tutti al campo base. Tutti tranne Alice Russell. Le ricerche partono all'istante: una donna sola e inesperta, seppur dinamica e brillante come Alice, ha poche speranze di sopravvivere nella foresta. Ad affiancare la polizia locale entrano in campo l'agente federale Aaron Falk, reduce dalla dolorosa indagine di Chi è senza peccato, e la sua collega Carmen Cooper, perché Alice non è un'impiegata come gli altri: è l'informatrice-chiave in un'indagine contro la criminalità organizzata e il riciclaggio di denaro sporco che vede coinvolta la sua società. Dunque, con ogni probabilità anche chi era con lei sulle Giralang, distese di bellezza selvaggia e ostile rese ancora più inquietanti dal fatto che sono state territorio d'azione del serial killer Martin Kovac.

Recensioni
But now, as he stood in front of that forlorn cabin, he could almost hear an insistent whisper in his own mind. Get away. Run. 4 1/2 stars. Oh, I liked this book a lot. I ended up enjoying it even more than Harper's The Dry because, though both were compelling, this one felt less formulaic. And w
4.5 STARS "Later, the four remaining women could fully agree on only two things. One: No-one saw the bushland swallow up Alice Russell. And two: Alice had a mean streak so sharp it could cut you." It's no secret that I adored Jane Harper's 2017 (US) debut The Dry , but that didn't ensure I would love h Leggi tutto
Even when Jane Harper writes a story I don't quite connect with (trekking through the wilderness with co-workers *shudders*), I still end up enjoying it. Five women go on a corporate retreat into the wilderness, but only four return. The missing woman, Alice, had been helping federal agent Falk with Leggi tutto
I love the subtle elegance of Harper's writing. Force of Nature didn't have the magic of The Dry (at least for my reading experience), and I wish there had been more of Aaron Falk. However, this is still a worthy read! Five women take part in a corporate retreat in the Gralong Ranges. They are su
4.5 stars Five women go on a hike. Only four return..... Another great one by Jane Harper! Five people go on a corporate retreat - they are going to hike and camp in the wilderness. They are to leave their cell phones behind and rely on themselves and each other. This is going to be team work at its b Leggi tutto
2.5 I knew it. I knew it! It was too good to be true. It was too much to ask from the writer who wrote one of the best, gripping mystery thrillers of 2017 without compromising on literary quality to repeat the same magic with her second book. I KNEW IT. Oh well for what's it worth, Jane Harper is a v Leggi tutto
