Blending elements of Laurie Halse Anderson's Speak and Gary
Paulsen's Hatchet,
debut novelist Kathryn Holmes delivers a gripping story that
author Richard
Peck calls a "page-turner about several kinds of survival."
Sophomore Hallie Calhoun has just endured the most excruciating
six months of
her life. Once the rumors about her and the preacher's son,
Luke, made their
way around school, her friends abandoned her, and Hallie has
completely
withdrawn.
Now, on a hike in the Smoky Mountains with the same people who
have
relentlessly taunted her, Hallie is pushed to her limit. Then
Hallie, outgoing
newcomer Rachel, and Jonah—Hallie's former friend—get separated
from the rest
of the group. As days go by without rescue, their struggle for
survival turns
deadly. Stranded in the wilderness, the three have no choice
but to trust one
another in order to stay alive . . . and for Hallie, that means
opening up
about what really happened that night with Luke.
From the catty atmosphere of high school to the unpredictable
terrain of the
mountains, this novel is a poignant, raw journey about finding
yourself after
having been lost for so long.
