Hilary Davidson’s The Next One to Fall takes place three months after the events of her Anthony Award-winning The Damage Done. Travel writer Lily Moore has been persuaded by her closest friend, photographer Jesse Robb, to visit Peru. Jesse is convinced that the trip will lure Lily out of her downward spiral, but Lily is haunted by betrayal and loss. At Machu Picchu, the famous Lost City of the Incas, they discover a woman clinging to life at the bottom of an ancient stone staircase. Just before the woman dies, she tells Lily the name of the man who pushed her. But when local police investigate, the forensic evidence they find doesn’t match up with what Lily knows. Unable to accept the official ruling of accidental death, Lily hunts down the wealthy man who was the dead woman’s traveling companion and discovers a pattern of dead and missing women in his wake.
