Until, out of the blue, an invitation to Clare’s hen do arrives. Not since Nora walked out of school one day and never went back. Librarian’s note: This is an updated cover image for Kindle.

I raced through this, totally unable to put it down…Dark, smart and compulsive. Peter Straub, New York Times bestselling author Ruth Ware has written an exciting, and in fact amazing book that never stops circling around behind the reader and clapping its cold hands over her eyes. I started IN A DARK, DARK WOOD on an airplane, kept dipping into it whenever I was left alone, devoured another big chunk on the flight home, and after that surrendered myself to it until the last revelation had bloomed, the final surprise had exploded, and the bittersweet conclusive turn had folded the final page. But as the first night falls, revelations unfold among friends old and new, an unnerving memory shatters Leonora’s reserve, and a haunting realization creeps in: the party is not alone in the woods. When reclusive writer Leonora is invited to the English countryside for a weekend away, she reluctantly agrees to make the trip. Sometimes the only thing to fear…is yourself.

What should be a cozy and fun-filled weekend deep in the English countryside takes a sinister turn in Ruth Ware’s suspenseful, compulsive, and darkly twisted psychological thriller.
