A group of friends from Oxford meet at a remote estate in the Scottish Highlands to ring in the new year and relax. And what a group they are. Now in their 30's, they are still struggling to define themselves and their relationships. 
Five voices narrate the Hunting Party; Katie, Miranda and Emma - three of the friends. Doug and Heather - the employees of the estate where the group is staying. I despised Miranda, liked Katie until her secret was revealed, and Emma was odd - just like she's supposed to be. We don't get very much context on the other guests - other than Miranda's husband Lionel and Emma's boyfriend Mark. 
The timeframe flips back and forth between the events before and after a dead body is found. Gets a little confusing at times. 
The suspense was not very suspenseful - but that's partly because I didn't care for the characters involved in the tension. And the epilog fell a little flat, although Katie's explanation made sense. 
Overall - not my favorite - but again - I'm not the target audience for this one.
