This is a thriller about a girl who is the last survivor of a serial killer and what happens when a podcast tries to set up a contest about finding that killer's bones. I appreciated the way the author tackled the way these podcasts can be very exploitative. There's another girl, Caroline, who has been emotionally abused by her father and is worried about her own rage. Is the canyon playing tricks on their mind? Who knows?
