The Blair Witch Project meets Midsommar in this brilliantly disturbing thriller from Camilla Sten, an electrifying new voice in suspense.
Documentary filmmaker Alice Lindstedt has been obsessed with the vanishing residents of the old mining town, dubbed “The Lost Village”, since she was a little girl. In 1959, her grandmother’s entire family disappeared in this mysterious tragedy, and ever since, the unanswered questions surrounding the only two people who were left - a woman stoned to death in the town center and an abandoned newborn - have plagued her. She’s gathered a small crew of friends in the remote village to make a film about what really happened.
But there will be no turning back.
Not long after they’ve set up camp, mysterious things begin to happen. Equipment is destroyed. People go missing. As doubt breeds fear and their very minds begin to crack, one thing becomes startlingly clear to Alice:
They are not alone.
They’re looking for the truth....
But what if it finds them first?
Come find out.
A Macmillan Audio production from Minotaur Books
"An enthralling and claustrophobic read. Camilla Sten has written a lurid thriller that will send shivers down your spine." (M.T. Edvardsson, author of A Nearly Normal Family)
"Come for the mounting horror and scares, but stay for a devastating examination of the nature of family secrets." (New York Times Book Review)

Loved it.
I will be seeking out more titles from this and other Scandinavian authors.
Angela Dawe is always a brilliant reader. Her range of voices for each character, clear speech, and emotion that follows the story perfectly enhance anything that she reads.
Camilla Sten has given us a wonderful and thrilling mystery to immerse ourselves into. She paints a picture with words, making each scene a vivid image in our minds. It was easy to imagine myself in this small Scandinavian village amongst the colorful little houses feeling the same emotions as the characters. I wish I could understand Sweedish so I could listen to / read more of her work.

lost interest to finish the book
still managed to finish it though. the start was really good and powerful and then mid chapters, you already knew what was going on and it kinda just dragged on. i caught myself just waiting for the characters to catch up.

Interesting storyline, more of a thriller
I came with a preference for horror and the supernatural, so was slightly disappointed with the purchase. This was most certainly a thriller mystery, but not a horror novel. The storyline was interesting and I could picture the settings in my mind's eye. Some of the hidden twists were easy to discern early on. Overall, it was worth a one time read.

Great Narration and Very Good Mystery
I liked this story a lot, was very drawn into the mystery. The narrator put a lot of heart and emotion into the characters.

If you love a good mystery check this book out!
I love a good mystery and a good scary story which this book definitely delivered. The author does a great job slowly revealing what happened in the past with short flashbacks that are like a puzzle you slowly put together. The shocks and suprises are completely unexpected and the story takes you on a creepy and disturbing ride. Loved it.

Meh.
I enjoyed the ambience of the setting, the cult back story, and the continuous switching from now to then. The ending was kind of a surprise. Is this a supernatural mystery? You’re left to decide that for yourself. In the end I found the story to be missing excitement. Maybe it’s because I found the main character in the “now” to be incredibly annoying. In fact, all the intentional heartfelt or heartbreaking moments in the “now” were so contrived, I was just left rolling my eyes. It didn’t come off as real emotion. The narration likely exasperated that, although it wasn’t as much of an issue during the “then” portions of the novel which were much more interesting. I enjoyed the premise, but in the end it fell flat for me. Wouldn’t recommend it to a friend.

major disappointment
I had been looking forward to this for a while, after first seeing it in the "upcoming" section. But then it was actually terrible. If you can suspend your disbelief about pretty much every element of the plot, there's a chance you might enjoy it in a B horror movie way, but... no.
I was so disappointed.
