A Cold War

De: Alan Russell

Narrado por: Teri Clark Linden

Nina Granville believes her business trip to Alaska will give her a short respite from the merry-go-round that came with her engagement to Congressman Terrence Donnelly. But instead of allowing her the peace she craves, Nina's getaway from the public eye means that no one witnesses her abduction into a very cold hell.

Taken by a mountain man who calls himself Baer and then transported to a remote cabin surrounded by nothing but frozen wilderness, Nina descends into a nightmare of terror, privation, and bitter cold. Nina's privileged life did not prepare her for imprisonment at the hands of this survivalist trapper. If she is to live - and to escape - Nina realizes she must do it on her own.

Undaunted and with startling determination, Nina pits herself against her captor, her fear, and nature itself in a battle for her life - but can she win against such deadly opponents?

Narrator sounded like she was reading a romance novel

It was a good story, but the presentation was all wrong. No feeling of thrill.

Interesting Premise

It was a good story and I was really into it, when suddenly it seemed like the whole pretense just derailed. I thought it was a tale of survival, which it was. That is where it should have ended.. I thought I was at the end of the book and then saw I had about 2 hrs left and thought "what more?." Then the whole story took a turn in a completely different direction. Kind of spoiled it for me.
Teri Clark Linden did a fine job with the narration. All the different male voices in this one!

At first, I hated the main character...

Any additional comments?

The main character gets on your nerves so much in the early chapters, you'll wonder why you're listening to a book about such a flake. But things change. This is a story for those who like to be transported into a different world; like, the frozen wild of Alaska. The story itself is very suspenseful, but add in the drama of survival in the wild, now you're talking.

Good story line, very good end.

moved at a nice pace, was very steady in the way the story unfolded. there were enough twists to keep you guessing on what to next.

didn't see that coming

it was a very good story. I enjoyed the character development. I did not see the end coming.
