The guide she’s replacing was just one of many. As Sloane settles into her new home—a one-room apartment she’ll be sharing with the five other guides—she can’t help asking questions and digging into the disappearances she’s heard about. Her new roommates tell her stories of dark legends and dangerous folklore surrounding the secluded camp but assure her there’s nothing to worry about. It’s all just superstition.
When Sloane stumbles upon a clue and a secret message hidden beneath the floorboards of their loft, she begins to realize there may be more to the myths than she’s been told.
The message gets her attention: Don’t trust anyone at Widow Falls.
Widow Falls follows Sloane as she starts a new job as a river guide. She stumbles into a mystery of missing tour guides, including the one she is replacing mid-season. A hidden diary may hold the clue to what happened. I thought this was a fairly enjoyable thriller. It kept my interest throughout and was well paced.
The story is told through Sloane's point of view. She is kind of an unreliable narrator. She has some secrets herself. So, I wasn't sure if I could trust her. I liked the mystery and the couple of twists. I was definitely kept guessing. The final twist was completely unexpected. What I didn't love was the truth of what was happening at the camp. I really had to suspend my disbelief to believe that it would ever happen. Still I would pick this one up. It's a quick read. I listened to the audiobook and enjoyed the narrator.
