“An addictive, razor-sharp thriller—darkly funny, brilliantly tense, and impossible to put down.” —Jo Morey, author of Lime Juice Money
Wild meets The Wife Between Us in this page-turning thriller, set in Maine’s Hundred Mile Wilderness—the treacherous final stretch of the storied Appalachian Trail—an addictive tale of passion, betrayal, control, and what it means to survive.
Raised by a doomsday prepper and hardened by the start-up world, Emma Sharp has learned how to endure—especially in her marriage to Logan Grant, a charismatic tyrant who keeps her under tight control. To Emma, her marriage is a cage: it keeps her in, but it also keeps her safe. Until it doesn’t.
When Emma forms an unexpected bond with Logan’s former girlfriend, the two women hatch a plan to help Emma take her life back. Destination: the punishing final stretch of the Appalachian Trail known as the Hundred Mile Wilderness.
After all, bad things happen in the woods all the time.
As the three venture deeper into Maine’s backcountry, desire and dread curdle into something unpredictable, dark, and deadly. Someone is lying. Someone is watching. And in the remote heart of the forest, someone is about to be lost . . . or found.
