This book is definitely something. 5 friends decide to go camping in the Scottish woods. It's a night of drinking, telling spooky stories and sitting around the camp fire. One thing leads to another, and Martin ends up missing. From then - it just goes one by one till Heather is the only person left. 
Let me just get it out of the way, I was not expecting supernatural elements when I began this book, so it's definitely something that caught me off guard. I wasn't mad at it, but I wasn't really thrilled. This book has a good way of being creepy, and Heather does a great job at setting a dark feeling. The writing wasn't too bad, but I did find myself bored at times because nothing interesting was happening. The ending was very, very shocking. Like I had to re read it 5 times to make sure I understood what was being said. I think the ending is the reason I rated this a 3 star, instead of a 2. 
On the other hand, I wish we could have gotten a real picture of what happened in the woods. I think the ending was very abrupt, but I know it was done for a shocking aspect. I did enjoy it, but I wish we could know the real version of things and how they went down.
