Synopsis: “Riya Jordan and her friends are excited about their trip to Brazil for a wildlife and forest organization before heading off to college. However, things take a turn for the worst when bodies are found mangled among their campgrounds left by two predatorial stalkers. They are forced to run and find safety, but end up helpless on a battered bridge. While on this bridge, not only are they preyed upon by these beasts, but other deathly mishaps occur on... THE BRIDGE.”

Rating: ***

I received a copy of The Bridge from the author in exchange for an honest review.

The Bridge was a very simple but effective idea - a group of students travel to a volunteer site in Brazil where strange things seem to happen and people go missing. I think The Bridge would have benefited from being a full-length novel as opposed to a novella, as the author crammed a lot in (both number of characters and a number of flashbacks) which didn't necessarily suit such a short book. The Bridge could do with a really good edit and tidy up, but is a very quick read for those who enjoy fast paced suspense filled books.
