Title: The Search PartyAuthor: Simon LelicFormat reviewed: EbookSource: NetgalleyPublisher: PenguinPublication Date: 14th August 2020Rating: 5 Stars
16-year-old Sadie Saunders is missing.
Five friends set out into the woods to find her.
But they're not just friends...
THEY'RE SUSPECTS.
You see, this was never a search party.
It's a witch hunt.
And not everyone will make it home alive...
Suddenly at 75% of the way through I had a flash of genius as to who may be behind some of what was going on, and I'm utterly shocked to say I was correct.
Leading up to that point, even before the police were sure, I had no clue at all and even then I wasn't expecting to have guessed, and I was completely out on the motivations!
This is a story that will keep you guessing throughout, was we hear the various teen's accounts of what happened in the forest, when they formed their own search party for Sadie.
Through the police interviews and repeated questions it becomes clear that nothing is quite what it seems but whether you can guess who may be covering for what is another matter.
It's a story that shows how things can spiral out of control and why honesty is often the best policy
It's another gripping story from Simon Lelic, an author I'm really enjoying reading and seeing what twisted scenarios he may come up with next.
Thank you to Penguin and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
