Backstabbers

A deliciously tense, edge-of-your-seat reading experience that will have you turning pages well into the night, desperate to know what happens to this trio of women hiking in the former hunting ground of a serial killer. With the spine of a fast-paced thriller, Backstabbers is, at its core, a story about survival: against the elements, against predators, and most chillingly, against the people you consider your closest friends. 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
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. High octane and incredibly tense! – ALLIE REYNOLDS
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
Jabore keeps the intensity at a fever pitch throughout, balancing raw terror with the more subtly haunting collapse of long-standing friendships. Readers will be on tenterhooks from the first page to the finale * Publishers Weekly, starred review *
If your friends jumped off a bridge, would you do it, too? Eliza Jabore turns your parents’ taunt into a blistering thriller that takes off at breakneck speed and doesn’t pause for breath until its utterly delirious finish. A biting satire of true crime, a spine-tingling tale of a 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

Eliza Jabore began globetrotting at seventeen and spent the next decade devoted to travelling. She met her husband abroad and, after many years of adventure, finally planted roots back in her hometown in Iowa where she has two kids, two cats, and a dog. Backstabbers is her debut novel.
