I'm in awe!
My husband keeps irregular hours, so I could relate to Libby's emotions when her husband didn't come home on time. This is a suspenseful story - difficult to put down, but touches of humor, especially in the internal dialogue, keep the narrative from heaviness. The author has a gift for using dialogue to paint a portrait of the characters - oh, how I want a friend like Jenika! The descriptions of "up north" had me scratching imaginary mosquito bites. What a writer! ...more

This was a harrowing tale about a woman in a difficult marriage whose husband leaves for a 2-week fishing trip in northern Canada and does not return. Overcoming her anger at him for getting out before she could is her true concern for his safety. She organizes a search party with her best friend and her father-in-law. While only her father-in-law has wilderness experience, the three journey to retrace her husband's steps in the hope of finding answers.

This book really digs deeply into the emotions of a couple in trouble, when the husband goes missing. I wanted a little more of the after part and a little less of the before part, as I felt like it would have cemented some of the lessons learned a bit more. Instead, I felt there were loose ends.
A well written story, but I would have loved a little more.
