Guys Trip

By C Lowry

He cooked up a brilliant plan. It was deadly, slightly unhinged, and, in Guy Brennan's mind, perfectly justified.

Guy is a man on the edge-of reason, of his rented apartment, and of his already frayed relationship with his ex-wife, Sarah. Her new husband, Derek Hoffman, is everything Guy isn't: successful, charming, infuriatingly competent, and worst of all, great with Guy's kids. Consumed by resentment and a desperate longing for his old life, Guy hatches a plot as dark and tangled as the Ozark wilderness he chooses for its setting: a "guys' trip" designed to permanently remove Derek from the picture. If Derek has a tragic accident, surely Sarah will need Guy again.

Armed with internet research on "wilderness accidents" and "bear behavior", Guy lures the unsuspecting Derek into the heart of the Ozark National Forest. But from the moment their ill-fated adventure begins, Guy's carefully crafted schemes backfire with spectacular, darkly comedic precision. From tampered compasses leading them in circles to sabotaged gear that injures the wrong man, each meticulously planned "accident"-be it involving bears, rapids, sheer cliffs, venomous snakes, poisonous berries, or out-of-control fires -implodes, leaving Guy more battered, humiliated, and further from his goal than ever.
