The thriller that every adventurer needs to read.
The book starts with the discovery of their bodies, and it follows through the journey that got them there. Clay, Sylvia, Dylan, and Luke head into the Kentucky wilderness hoping to make rock climbing history. Almost immediately, the woods seem to be different and sinister. When the dog doesn't want to move forward, you listen to the dog. But they press on as the valley invites them in.
This book will reel you in and make you scared to go camping. As another Kentuckian, it hit even closer to home.
I received an ARC of this book for review consideration but all opinions are my own.
