Synopsis

Some secrets don’t fade. They hunt.

Expanse, Colorado. Population 313. A town so remote it barely exists on a map—the perfect hiding place for Annie Wolfe and her daughter, Coral. Their cabin is nearly off the grid, and Annie has done everything to keep them safe. Everything. But she knows the people hunting her don’t forget. And they don’t forgive.

Riven knows about survival. She and her family have lived off the land for years, moving like shadows through the wilderness. Now her father has led them to this forgotten town, tracking the man he swears destroyed their lives. The plan is simple: strike fast, take revenge, and disappear.

But when Riven knocks on Annie’s door, their worlds collide. What follows is darker, stranger, and more dangerous than either woman ever imagined—because the hunt isn’t just for vengeance. It’s for the truth. And in Expanse, Colorado, the truth can kill.

Review

Told from a dual point of view, this novel kept me guessing about motives, the past, the present, and what the outcome might be.

Annie escaped to this tiny town in Colorado to escape her past. She is on the run with her daughter, but is she being chased?

Riven is on a missing with her brother and father to hunt down the man who took their mother from them, or did he?

Their meeting in this fast paced novel will keep you wondering, hoping for a positive outcome, and surprises from the twists at the end.

I have always enjoyed books by this author. He is able to draw a reader in with the situations and characters, but still manage to surprise the reader. I did not expect some of those twists, and obviously I can’t talk about them otherwise it will ruin the book. Trust me, it is worth reading if you enjoy psychological thrillers. There are even a few emotional moments when some of the truths are revealed.

Run, don’t walk, and grab a copy of this book for yourself. We give it 5 paws up.
