About this listen

When three friends lose their way in a serial killer’s old hunting ground, they must fight to survive the threat in the woods—and each other—in this spiky, heart-pounding slasher.

“One of the most twisted and shocking explorations of female friendship I’ve read . . . and I loved every pulse-pounding moment.”—Laurie Elizabeth Flynn, author of The Girls Are All So Nice Here

Never turn your back on a friend.

Jade, Stef, and Zoe are hiking Washington State’s Bones Hollow Trail, braving cougars, black bears, and storms that roll in without warning. Their anxiety isn’t helped by listening to a true crime podcast about the serial killer who once prowled this same forest.

When Stef twists her ankle—badly—there’s no one to hear them scream for help. The only sign of life for miles is a cabin that looks to be straight out of a horror movie, occupied by a man who’s all too eager to invite them in.

As things take a chilling turn, the friends must find a way to stay alive together. After all, who can you trust when your back’s against the wall? Unfortunately for them, the only thing more twisted than this nightmare is their friendship . . .

Critic Reviews

“A tense, edge-of-your-seat reading experience that will have you turning pages well into the night . . . It’s one of the most twisted and shocking explorations of female friendship I’ve read . . . and I loved every pulse-pounding moment.”—Laurie Elizabeth Flynn, USA Today bestselling author of The Girls Are All So Nice Here and Till Death Do Us Part

“Like the Blair Witch Project with a serial killer, Backstabbers is full of twists and unexpected turns. Every time I thought I’d identified the killer, I became lost on the map. Perfect for fans of murder podcasts, hikers, and people who don’t completely trust their best friends.”—Tasha Coryell, author of Love Letters to a Serial Killer

“Don’t you dare turn your back on Backstabbers, a deliciously sinister sojourn into true crime country, full of cunning switchbacks and eviscerations, where every shocking twist threatens to send the reader’s jaw plummeting straight down.”—Clay McLeod Chapman, author of Wake Up and Open Your Eyes

“A biting satire of true crime, a spine-tingling tale of survival, and an electric exploration of just how far we’ll go for our besties, Backstabbers is bloody, brilliant, and even laugh-out-loud funny. It sinks its animal claws into you and doesn’t let go.”—Leah Rowan, author of Marion

“Filmic, fresh, and frightening with shocks galore . . . Three best friends hike across the hunting ground of a serial killer in this survivalist thriller–meets–slasher story. It’s high octane and incredibly tense!”—Allie Reynolds, author of Shiver
