About this audiobook
'Exceptionally good... A frighteningly plausible nightmare'
Observer, Thrillers of the month
'Extraordinary: a unique blend of thriller, post-Covid dystopia and paean to the healing properties of nature'
Guardian
'Peter Heller's thrillers unfurl like campfire yarns'
New York Times
'An ever so subtly dystopian wilderness noir that speculates on the horrors of a post-pandemic society'
USA Today
Kingfisher Lodge: a boutique resort surrounded by a mile and a half of the most pristine river water on the planet.
Safe from viruses that have plagued America for years, Kingfisher offers a respite for wealthy clients - and a return to normality for fishing guide Jack, battling the demons of a recent, devastating loss.
But when a human scream pierces the night, Jack soon realises that the idyllic retreat may be merely a cover for a far more sinister operation.
