What you need to know before your trail

Max and Annie Kingsley have left the London rat race to set up a glamping site in the wilds of Cornwall. They invite old university friends – TV star Dominic, doctor and new mum Kira, and free-spirited Jim and Suze – and their children for a trial weekend but the reunion quickly veers off-course.

First, there’s The Incident around the campfire on the first night. The following afternoon, a storm quickly develops off the rugged North Coast. When one of their group goes missing, all hell breaks loose. And as the winds batter the bell-tents, emotions run high and tension mounts for all the characters.
Who is lying in hospital, who has gone missing and who is the body on the beach below the cliffs . . .?

Travel Guide

Cornwall

Morvoren Point is where the retreat is in the book. When they have a fire, someone fears they could see it in St Ives. There is no Morvoren Point in real life but it sounds a great place for a retreat – minus the drama and the deaths of course.

Always good to have a thriller in Cornwall – the rugged coastline, the rough sea, the remoteness of it all. Hannah Richell makes the location very much a part of the story!
