Force of Nature

I enjoyed Force of Nature by Jane Harper (her second novel, after The Dry) which is set in a forest in Victoria.  Five women are going on a bush walk "survival" adventure for a few days as a "team building" exercise. (Oh no, do they still do that rubbish!!)  Four of the women make it out of the forest after having a very uncomfortable time in there.  Federal policeman, Aaron Falk, and policewoman Carmen go to the forest to assist in the search for Alice who was a whistle-blower helping them in their inquiries regarding the company for which she worked.  Falk is concerned Alice's cover may have been blown and hope the local police will find her.  The story unfolds in two time periods - following the women over the days they were in the forest and the investigation phase when Alice goes missing.  A good story. 4/5
