Review: Hunted by Darcy Coates

Author: Darcy Coates
Publisher: Black Owl Books
Publication Date: August 2018

22-year-old Eileen goes missing while hiking in the remote Ashlough Forest. Five days later, her camera is discovered washed downriver, containing bizarre photos taken after her disappearance.

Chris wants to believe Eileen is still alive. When the police search is abandoned, he and four of his friends create their own search party to scour the mountain range. As they stray further from the hiking trails and the unsettling discoveries mount, they begin to believe they’re not alone in the forest… and that Eileen’s disappearance wasn’t an accident.

In Hunted, Chris and a group of friends head into a remote part of the forest to find Eileen. Her camera was found with weird photos and they are convinced she is still alive.  when they get deep into the forest, they realize they may have made a mistake. 

 I'll make this brief.  I ended up really enjoying this one.  I liked the characters as well as the atmosphere of the creepy forest.  It ended up going in a completely different direction than I was expecting.  You never know if it's something paranormal or not.  The reveal was definitely a surprise.  This is probably my favorite so far by this author. I would definitely recommend this one.
