One by One

A heart pounding, twisting thriller from the New York Times bestselling author of The Housemaid and The Coworker!

One by one, they will get what they deserve...

Claire Matchett needs this trip. It will be a break from work and raising children. A chance to repair her damaged marriage. A week of hiking and hot tubbing with friends at a luxurious hotel in the woods, disconnected from the pressures of real life.

Then, on a lonely dirt road, Claire's minivan breaks down. With no cell reception, the group has no choice but to walk the rest of the way to their remote accommodation. But the forest is dark and difficult to navigate and, hours later, they are lost. Hopelessly lost.

As they venture deeper into the woods, the members of their party are struck down mysteriously, one by one. Are they being hunted? And by what--or who? As Claire's dream vacation descends into a nightmare, something becomes clear: only one of them will return home alive.

A taut story of betrayal and survival from New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden that will leave you wondering if there's any way out of the woods...

This is the second book I’ve read by this author, I really enjoyed this one. There was always going to be a twist coming and it was a good one. Having thought about the book afterwards there are a couple of things that I don’t think were finalised I.e who sabotaged the car - if anyone? And the synopsis says only one returns but actually that’s not factually true. Still a good read and would recommend.

This book had a really strong start and was absolutely amazing to read, however, when it got to the end of the book, I was kind of disappointed with the ending and how it all played out. I wasn't expecting someone else from the group to be the one to attempt all the murders. I just thought it wasn't at all what I envisioned the book to be about. I honestly thought I'd be an outside party that we'd be meeting at the end. Kind of disappointed me a bit. Still a good book, but knowing that not everyone died or had a least 1 person left kind of ruined the whole book for me and what 'One by One'really stands for. In reality only half of the group ended up dying.
