An searingly powerful, superbly written and unputdownable thriller that is The Road meets Winter's Bone. HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO TO PROTECT THOSE YOU LOVE Life can be brutal. It's taken everything from Jack. Now it's coming for his little brother. Alone in the harsh Idaho Winter, their only chance of survival is finding the drug money that destroyed their family. Jack knew it. So did I. For seventeen years, Ava's father has controlled her life. He has silenced her voice and taught her to love no one. When Jack and I met, did I sense the coming tornado As Ava realises her father is on Jack's trail, she must choose whether to remain silent or fight for the brothers' survival - and her own chance at freedom. A searingly powerful thriller about love and redemption, asking how we decide what's right and wrong in a world where neither is simple, and what we risk if we fail.
Beautifully written and superbly constructed, Anderson pulls you onto a chilling footpath of love and loss and keeps you there until you've read every last word -- Ruta Sepetys
Riveting and unforgettable. * Kirkus starred review *
