From #1 New York Times bestselling author Lisa Gardner, a chilling thriller about a young man gone missing in the wilderness of Wyoming…and the secrets uncovered by the desperate effort to find himTimothy O’Day knew the woods. Yet when he disappeared on the first night of a bachelor party camping trip with his best friends in the world, he didn’t leave a trace.

Goodreads review by Emily May on September 30, 2022

Hard to put down. I enjoyed Before She Disappeared enough to seek out this sequel, but now I think that one pales in comparison. One Step Too Far was an utterly thrilling survivalist adventure through the woods in search of a young man (or, more likely, his body) who disappeared five years earlier wh......more

Goodreads review by Melissa (Always Behind) on January 20, 2022

WOW! What a thoroughly taut, tense, and engaging mystery. It is filled with breath-holding chases through the back country of Wyoming. I was engrossed from beginning to end and hope that readers will be equally as captivated as I was. NOTE: No harm comes to Daisy the dog. This is the second book feat......more

Goodreads review by JanB on March 27, 2022

When will I learn? The first book in the series was a 3-star read for me, but I decided to give book #2 a chance after hearing from other readers that it was better than the first. My apologies to those who loved it, but I should have followed my instincts. By the time the story began to fall apart......more

HAPPY PUBLICATION DAY! “My name is Frankie Elkin and finding missing people is what I do. When the police have given up, when the public no longer remembers, when the media has never bothered to care, I start looking. For no money, no recognition, and most of the time, with no help...Why do I do what......more

Quotes

“Narrator Hillary Huber uses perfect pacing and emphasis as bestselling thriller writer Gardner creates the second in a series featuring missing person specialist Frankie Elkin. Huber's narration matches this audiobook's intensity as Frankie searches for a young man who has gone missing after a wild bachelor party in a national forest. Huber employs shifts in tone and allows tension to creep into her delivery as the search reaches its dramatic climax. Gardner creates fully realized characters, flawlessly performed by Huber. She makes the father's desperation and fears palpable, allowing listeners to experience every parent's nightmare and the utmost evil patiently waiting in the woods.” —AudioFile Magazine, Earphones Award Winner“Huber's smoky voice and cynical reading helps build suspense. Narrated in first person, Frankie's thoughts and conversations are clearly differentiated. Other characters are well developed vocally, making each easy to identify. Excellent use of pace changes and pauses build the drama of the story, with energy and intensity. Fear and horror are palpable in Huber's voice, making this an exciting and compelling listen.” —Library Journal“It’s not often that a thriller so deeply casts us into the darkness of both nature and the human heart…Terrifying, primal, and very, very tense. Read it with your heart in your throat—but read it.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
