The Hike is another incredibly fun thriller by Lucy Clarke. A page turner for sure, I practically read it in one sitting. Pacing gets a little rushed at the end, and I found the conclusion of the mystery somewhat disappointing. As always, however, Clarke does an incredible job of crafting complicated and deeply flawed, deeply human characters, particularly the women.
