Resumen del Editor

In this thrilling novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Danielle Steel, a small community is tested when their children go missing while exploring a dangerous local peak, forcing them to band together during the crisis.

Fishtail, Montana, is home to Anne and Pitt Pollock, local royalty, high school sweethearts, and owners of the successful Pollock ranch. The sprawling foothills of the Beartooth Mountains surround the town, overlooking the Pollocks' property and the nearby ranch belonging to Bill and Pattie Brown. The two couples have known each other since childhood.

Their sons Peter Pollock and Matt Brown are also the best of friends. When they and two other local kids meet Juliet Marshall, new to town after her parents' bitter divorce, the five of them are soon inseparable, spending their summer days swimming, horseback riding, hiking, and fishing.

But one August afternoon, their latest adventure takes a dangerous turn—and quickly escalates into a battle for survival—when they find themselves trapped on Granite Peak. Fear reverberates through the town as their parents grow ever more desperate to hear word that their children have been found. They must place their own trials aside amid a massive search-and-rescue operation. As they come to lean on one another for support, a media frenzy ensues, heightening tensions and testing some already fragile relationships.

In the aftermath of this one fateful event, devastating secrets are revealed, new love appears on the horizon, and families are forced to reconsider what they once held dear. In The Challenge, Danielle Steel deftly weaves a story that is a portrait of courage and a striking tale of the bonds of love and family.

Great story!

I liked this story line more than most of the what Danielle Steele normally writes. To be clear I like all her stories. This one was just different, I kept wanting to listen to what happened next. Wish the ending would have had more in regards to each couples future.

Good Story

Great storyline, I just wasn't impressed with the way the story ended. Not what I expected in the end.

Awesome Book

I absolutely love this book it is one of my very favorites of Danielle Steel's Novels. I love Danielle Steel and the Narrator Jim Frangione did an excellent job, It was so hard for me to pause it when I had to go into work but I immediately started listening to it again on my breaks at work!!!

Where’s the Rest of it?

Everything was going great until the book just abruptly ended. It’s there a sequel or something? If not, this book is horribly incomplete.

enjoyed

Truly enjoyed reading The Challenge & i am looking forward to her next book.
I am very happy that Danielle Steel is writing more books each year and I love the diversity of them.

Adventurous and hopeful

I’ve read several of DS novels with no disappointment but I feel this story ended too quickly, and left things hanging. In the beginning the story focused on the kids and later on the parents. The Challenge was keeping up with all the different struggles each family, five, maybe six had.

Strange

The ending was really weird. The whole book was kind of weird. This is my first Danielle Steele book I've read. If they're all like this, I probably won't read another. It jumped all over the place and ended so strangely.

love the book, why does it keep stopping

I really loved the book, story was great and so was the narrator but the book kept just stopping on its ow. through Audible. I've never had that happen so unsure why that was the case.

Fell short

It was okay but kind of fell short. The end was awful with no hope. Just not for me.

So good!

I really enjoyed this story. The setting (Montana) seems sort of un-Danielle Steel like, but maybe she spent time in Montana and knows the area. Anyway, I really did like the characters and pretty much knew how it would end, but regardless found it very enjoyable. Good read!
