Descripción editorial
“Brilliant...A can't miss book.” —Ashley Winstead, USA TODAY bestselling author of This Book Will Bury Me
“A fun, dark, and twisty novel. I tore through it, eager to see who was playing who in a clever cat and mouse game.” —Jessie Garcia, author of The Business Trip
Ten years ago, a teenage summer camper disappeared while searching for a rumored treasure on a remote island. Now, the long-buried truth of what happened to her and the long-lost gold threatens the lives of her friends in this thriller from the critically acclaimed author of The Chateau.
Ten years ago, a group of American teenage summer campers went to a lush and isolated Azores island for a hiking and heritage trip. But when a clue to a local legend of buried treasure emerged, the summer devolved into a frenzied hunt and culminated in the disappearance—and rumored murder—of “it girl” camper, Sydney. She was never seen again and the treasure never found.
Now, a decade later, Sydney’s closest circle returns to honor her memory: Sydney’s sister and fellow camper, Olivia; a group of childhood camp friends; and their beloved counselors. They’ve all agreed to participate in a documentary probing what really happened to Sydney.
The group reunites in paradise and retraces their old haunts, hiking along crater lakes and submerging in thermal hot springs. But not everyone has innocent motives for returning to the island. And when the documentary filming reveals explosive truths and fresh hints resurrect the tantalizing treasure hunt, the group begins to implode. Old feuds reignite—and then one of them turns up dead.
Which means that a murderer has surfaced...again.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A young woman revisits the tragedy that landed her in the headlines a decade earlier in this engrossing page-turner from Goldis (The Safari). Ten years ago, Olivia Azulay was branded "the Sister Killer" for allegedly murdering her younger sibling Sydney when the two were at summer camp in the Azores. Olivia and Sydney were hunting for rumored treasure on the island of São Miguel when Sydney vanished, leaving behind only bloodstains, and Olivia suffered memory loss that left her unable to remember much of the day. Though no one was conclusively blamed for Sydney's disappearance, her blood under Olivia's fingernails and Olivia's history of shaky mental health convicted Olivia in the court of public opinion. Now the mystery resurfaces when a film crew shooting a documentary about the case explores the theory that Sydney was killed to conceal the treasure's location. Olivia agrees to be interviewed for the film, and soon the case's reopening leads to more violence. Goldis makes shrewd use of several possibly unreliable narrators, including Olivia and two of her fellow campers. Riley Sager fans will relish this dark, crafty puzzle.
