Resumen del Editor

The New York Times bestselling "master" (Stephen King) of American thriller writing returns with an electrifying new novel about a mother seeking to reconnect with her children after a terrible trial tears their family apart.

Once a wife, mother, and witness to a gruesome crime, Leah Trenton was extended a miraculous olive branch in the form of the state's protected witness program. But for this second chance at life, Leah would have to leave behind her Midwestern roots to the northernmost tip of Maine. Alone and isolated along the banks of the Allagash River, she is determined to focus on the present, on her reclaimed future, but the demons of her past, are relentlessly chipping away at Leah's protected hideaway.

Meanwhile, in the wake of their father's untimely death, Leah's children are sent to stay with her, though they are desperate to return back home. They embark on a cross country homeward journey but before they reach, danger finds them and it is Leah who must come out of her seclusion to search for and protect her children.

Told with the deft plotting and enthralling storytelling of a genre master, these two captivating chase narratives will converge along the rugged Allagash River, in the wilds of Maine, where the wills, morals, and ingenuity of a broken family will be tested against all odds.

This story had me on the edge of my seat for about 20 chapters. I could not turn it off! Wonderful suspense and a satisfying ending!

Great read

Loved Dax’s sense of humor. Thoroughly enjoyed listening to this thanks to the narrator. Kudos!

4 stars for a bit too much violence

The story was very well told and the performance was engaging. I gave Overall 4 stars for the gratuitous violent descriptions. It was just too much, although not as bad as some. I’d rather be engaged in the story than waiting for the violence so I can fast forward.

Riveting thriller

Koryta never disappoints! Loved the characters and the twists and turns! Hard to put down!
Excellent read! Cannot wait for the next book.

Absolutely loved it. Dax Blackwell is such a fascinating character. Wonder jow he would do against Jack Reacher..

One of his best

I loved this book, which is both suspenseful and amusing. While I liked and sympathized with the protagonists, I hoped most at the end that in the future we will see more of some of the other characters. (Trying to avoid spoilers!)

Entertaining
