More on Goodreads Read an excerpt The coffee maker in our cabin is broken, so I run up to the lodge and make three perfect cups of drip. The decaf is for me. I haven't touched any sort of mind-altering substance-including caffeine, which is in practically everything-for the past 365 days. The Ethiopian Dark Roast is for Isabelle and Kimmy. "Smells strong. And expensive," says Martha, the gray-haired owner of the lodge, as she hands me a cardboard tray. Her hands are rough and gnarled with swollen joints.

"Good luck, honey, and look out for yourself. Lots of people go into that forest. Not all of them come out." Martha waves without smiling as I make my way out the door. Isabelle and Kimmy are standing across the parking lot, next to our rented Jeep. Isabelle is the tall, bird-boned, awkward one. Long red ponytails hang beneath her brown knit cap. Kimmy is the sporty one, the slim-hipped blond in no-bullshit compression tights with a red stripe along the sides. Both are my best friends in the world, closer to me than any family. They know me to my dark, rotten core. A year ago today, they saw me at my worst. I treated them with unspeakable cruelty, and they didn't just forgive me, they saved my life...
