Living in the woods, surrounded by nature, is a fantasy of those living within the unethical confines of society. But when you're seventeen, even thinking about walking through the woods conjures up ghastly visions.

Taylar must forgive her father's intentional betrayal of bringing her family to live in the remote Bob Marshall Wilderness in Montana. Hundreds of miles from civilization, she must put aside her fears and do her part to help her family survive the challenges of dense wilderness, mountain lions, bear, rattlesnakes, and the worst animal of all – man.

Will their father realize that their neighbors aren't what they appear to be . . . before it's too late? Will her almost sixteen-year-old sister, Brook, who loves hunting and nature, have what it takes to guide them out of the untamed wilderness and back to civilization?
