Two best friends. Two dead backpackers. One secret that won’t stay buried.
Emily and Kristen have always been inseparable. Their annual adventure trips are the highlight of Emily’s year—until this one ends in blood. Kristen claims self-defense, just like last year. But how many accidents can one friendship survive?
Back home, Emily tries to return to normal: new job, new boyfriend, new life. But Kristen isn’t done. She shows up uninvited, all smiles and shared secrets, pulling Emily back into a story that doesn’t add up.
As Emily begins to question what really happened on those trips, the truth turns more terrifying than she imagined.
We Were Never Here is a dark, twisty Reese’s Book Club pick and New York Times bestseller perfect for fans of Gone Girl and Thelma & Louise—with bite.
