Out There is a novel following four couples away on their annual family weekend. This year, they have travelled far into the Scottish Glens to a remote yet modern lodge where more than just the views await them. Four narrators tell the story; Shelley, the family's matriarch; Claire, the eldest daughter; Kyle, the middle child; and Ellie, the youngest. They each have their better half and respective backstories with subtext to follow. Throughout the weekend, strange goings-on occur, which unnerve the family, and they soon realise they are not alone in the lodge. Trapped with no chance of escape and several family members missing, they hatch numerous plans to escape. Still, none are fruitful until the identity of the terroriser comes to light, and the family has to take action.
