Critics Review
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 *
