In the frozen wilderness of Alaska, a cabin is readied for the winter. Jonesy and Lisa, with their loyal dog Lad, have been preparing their home to avoid a repeat of their horrific first year living apart from civilisation. They survived that. They’ll survive this. But then the strangers arrive. Two people who are even more desperate to survive, who have clawed their way through hell to reach Jonesy and Lisa, and who will drag them back down there with them. And out in the forest, that other cabin waits for someone to return....

Good story of survival against all odds

Pure and simple, this is a book about what people will do just to survive. Part of the story is about a couple living their 2nd winter in the Alaska wilderness. They struggled their first winter and almost didn't live through it. They learned a lot and thought they were prepared for their second winter. That probably would have been the case if a female stranger and later a male stranger hadn't landed at their doorstep. When you have enough to get 2 people and a dog through winter, it's tough to get 4 and a dog through with those same provisions. This is really true when the male stranger starts eating all their food. The story talks about life in a wilderness setting and how difficult survival can be, especially if you are far from anyone else. All it takes it one mistake or a couple of strangers showing up and surviving that human contact becomes an even bigger act of survival. Good story and lots of action.

Nah... Couldn't be me!

Great story... Kill that dude already!!! Really good story. I was a little put off by the narrator at first but he grew on me. I was ready to jump in the story and help my new friends out.

Trigger warning; cohersive control

The book, narroration, and setting are done incredibly well. the story was addicting too, but at a certain point I needed to stop. The author and narrorator are a little too good at showing an abusive relationship :[ I just wish I could get past it to see the resolution/payoff but the tension is too strong. it's got a dog 11/10

Dumb husband

This book wouldn’t have a story if the husband would just listen to his wife!

narrator at first....

was off putting but it gets better. I listened on like 1.8x speed and took some adjusting too. but great story and great book.
