Try this if you like… 

• one man's delusional utopian mindset
• slow-burn reflections of the past
• equal parts contemporary, mystery, thriller, & suspense
• the complexities of relationships
• Alaska setting

This was a spur-of-the-moment read for me. I was randomly looking up audio’s that were available now and this was the one I went with…I thought it would be more of a survival story…but it was much more reflective than surviving the wilds of Alaska. The ending was its saving grace and made the slow-ish pace of the rest of the book, mostly worthwhile.
 

• The narration by Karissa Vacker was amazing as always.
