Anita Kelly writes another fantastic book that will grab you by the emotions and give you a shake! Alexei and Ben are wonderful, layered and likable characters. Setting the story with the PCT as the backdrop was so interesting and made for such a rich story. It was a generally really great read!

I do wish the autism was better explored, instead of being implied and then added in the epilogue. It felt obvious that it was where the author was going but I wish there had been some earlier discussions on the subject to really work it into the message being put out.
