Rebecca Guy - UK Author

“I have never been so wrapped up in a story. The suspense and spooky goings on were so atmospheric it literally had my heart racing at times.”

Goodreads Review - Ruin

"I've been addicted to ghost stories since I was a young child, but for me a scary story isn't enough. I sprinkle my stories not only with shadows and a creak on the stairs, but relationships, drama, love, and that all important bad guy or girl, to give you the perfect blend of not only ghosts, but hints of romance, mystery, and suspense from the living too."

THE TRAIL PROMISED SOLITUDE.

ebook 6x9 The Hike front cover - FINAL.png

AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER SOON

Annie Pattison sets out on a hundred-mile trek through the Scottish Highlands, carrying the ashes of her late husband to the highest peak of his favourite trail. This journey was meant to be a final goodbye—a way to honour the man she loved.

​

But the trail is not empty.

​

At night, she wakes to the sound of footsteps circling her tent—slow, deliberate. The wind carries eerie whispers that don’t belong to the living. In the morning, she finds chilling notes, each one weighed down by a bloodied stone and a lifeless mouse. The feeling that she is not alone tightens around her like a noose. She is not just being watched—she is being followed.

​

And then she sees him. Standing in the mist. Wearing her dead husband’s jacket.

​

Terror grips her, but deep beneath the panic is something worse—recognition. It isn’t just the jacket. It’s the way he stands. The way he moves. His presence is in the trees, in the shifting fog, in the desolate mountains.

​

There is nowhere left to run. The mountains are vast. The shadows are closing in, and Annie is about to learn just how much her husband kept from her. Annie thought she knew the man she married, but there were secrets he never shared—secrets that got him killed - and the same people who silenced him have been waiting for her to follow his path.

​

Alone in the vast and merciless Highlands, Annie must confront the shadows of the past before they claim her, too.

IT DELIVERED SOMETHING MUCH DARKER.

"The perfect eerie thriller to keep you turning pages well into the night."
