The Truth Must Not be Unearthed
It’s a team building exercise into the forest for 10 colleagues. Many don’t want to be there, but two promotions are available and they know this is a test.
Things go wrong immediately. When crossing over a fast moving river, a rope bridge entangles one of them and it’s into the rushing water. A rescue attempt by one of the guides goes badly wrong. With no supplies, or shelter, and disparate personalities, there will be trouble.
I don’t need to tell you anything else. Eric Beetner has written a stellar suspense story that brings us back and forth – from the forest to the city. It takes great skill to do that so effortlessly that it’s a smooth and natural transition, and Beetner has that skill mastered. There and Back is highly recommended.

Sounds exciting!
Oh boy, it could be one for you Laurie 🙂
Thank you so much, June, for the thoughtful review. So glad you enjoyed it!
My pleasure Eric, it’s a damn good book
Team building efforts can have really disastrous consequences, June. This sounds suspenseful, and it reminds of me of Jane Harper’s Force of Nature, which also has a team-building sort of retreat as its context. If you haven’t read it, You may enjoy it.
It’s got all the elements needed for a page turner Margot. I really enjoy Harper’s writing, so am sure I’d like your recommendation 🙂
