It was supposed to be the perfect week away . . . Imogen and Beck, two sisters who couldn' t be more different, have been friends with Tilda since high school. Once inseparable, over two decades the women have grown apart. But after Imogen survives a traumatic attack, Beck suggests they all reunite to hike deep into the Grand Canyon' s backcountry. A week away, secluded in nature . . . surely it' s just what they need. But as the terrain grows tougher, tensions from their shared past bubble up. And when supplies begin to disappear, it becomes clear secrets aren' t the only thing they' re being stalked by. As friendship and survival collide with an unspeakable evil, Getaway becomes another riveting thriller from a growing master of suspense and a "literary horror writer on the rise" (BookPage).
"Three friends, the Grand Canyon, a week-long trip: what could go wrong? The blade of dread is at your carotid on every page of Getaway. I loved reading Stage' s latest. "--Erica Ferencik, author of The River at Night and Into the Jungle "An outstanding read. Suffice it to say that what follows is a stunning--at times sensitive, at times feral--exploration of just how deep and powerful the bonds of sisterhood and female friendship can be and how a squeaky mouse can become a roaring lion. . . . Recommend as women' s fiction as well as psychological suspense. "--Booklist (starred review) "Getaway feels like 127 Hours meets The Descent . . . In Zoje Stage' s latest delightfully disturbing novel, best friends head into the Grand Canyon' s deepest recesses in an adventure that quickly becomes a nightmare. " --CrimeReads "In Zoje Stage' s masterful, deft hands, a girlfriends' backpacking trip becomes, instead, a nightmarish descent into unimaginable terror. Chilling, thrilling, spine-tinglingly addictive, and unbelievably tense, I held my breath as I raced through the last hundred pages, desperate to find out what was going to happen. An absolute thrill-ride and a deep dive into female friendship, Getaway deserves to be the top of your summer reading list!"--May Cobb, author of The Hunting Wives "A dazzling hunt and hide chase through the Grand Canyon, as white-hot and pulsing as the Arizona sun. . . . Zoje Stage masterfully displays what happens when female friendship becomes the most powerful weapon in a wilderness fight for survival. "--Jenny Milchman, USA Today bestselling author of The Second Mother "Harrowing . . . A nerve-shredding adventure that' s as exhilarating--and dangerous--as its awe-inspiring setting. "--Taylor Adams, author of No Exit "Strap into your pack and step into this inky darkness with Zoje Stage, and know that, after the sun goes down, nothing' s safe. "--Stephen Graham Jones, New York Times bestselling author of The Only Good Indians "Tense and terrifying, Getaway is an extraordinary work of suspense. Stage delivers both a harrowing, heart-pounding thrill ride and an astute exploration of trauma, regret, compassion, and perseverance. "--Rachel Harrison, author of The Return "Zoje Stage' s Getaway is exactly the kind of heart-in-your-throat, how-are-they-going-to-get-out-of-it thriller that I love--a rip-roaring wilderness adventure story that tests the characters' physical abilities and moral resolve to their limits. Tense, unpredictable, and utterly compelling, Stage' s complex story of friendship and survival is a must-read. I loved this book!"--Karen Dionne, internationally bestselling author of The Marsh King' s Daughter and The Wicked Sister "A terrifying thriller about female friendship . . . Zoje Stage is continuing her run as the master of the psychological thriller. "--Entertainment Weekly "A deliciously creepy read. "--New York Post, on Baby Teeth "A twisty, delirious read. "--Entertainment Weekly, on Baby Teeth
