Book Synopsis

Taking us deep into the heart of the Costa Rican jungle, Sunday Times bestselling author Karen Swan returns with The Secret Path – complete with her trademark romance, glamour, and jaw-dropping twists.

'A glamorous adventure' - Hello!
'A twisty, glamorous read, bringing jungles, beaches and ancient towns to life' -
My Weekly

An old flame. A new spark. Love can find you in the most unlikely places . . .

At only twenty, Tara Tremain has everything: she’s a trainee doctor, engaged to the man of her dreams – Alex, a passionate American biology student. But just when life seems perfect, Alex betrays her in the worst way possible.

Ten years later, she’s moved on – with a successful career, good friends and a man who loves her. But when she’s pulled back into her wealthy family’s orbit for a party in the heart of Costa Rica, she’s flung into a crisis: a child is desperately ill and the only treatment is several days’ trek away, deep in the jungle.

There's only one person who can help – but can she trust the man who broke her heart?

Your Costa Rican adventure awaits . . .

What Karen's readers are saying:
'So immersive I could feel the heat, see the dense forest'
'Pure escapism, action, adventure, romance and intrigue'
'So detailed and real that I started itching with imaginary insect bites!'
