The stunning wilds of Alaska are not for the faint of heartâbut when Beth Rivers finds herself with a need to disappear, sheâs already faced far worse. So how hard could it be?
Beth Rivers, known to the world as Elizabeth Fairchild, has spent years as a bestselling novelist. Her twisty, page-turning thrillers have garnered a legion of fans, but unfortunately, her story-telling landed her in an unbelievable tale of her ownâa situation even more terrifying than she could have dreamed. Crazed Elizabeth Fairchild super-fan Levi Brooks stalked and kidnapped Elizabeth, holding her captive inside a van for three days. She escaped by throwing herself from the speeding van, suffering a severe head injury and memory loss.
Scarred and still healing from her injuries, she secretly escapes to the beautifulâand very remoteâBenedict, Alaska. Itâs the only place she can be sure no one will find her. But just before Bethâs arrival, the already small population of Benedict was reduced by one. Linda Raffertyâs death was ruled a suicide, but no one in the close-knit community quite believes that conclusion, even the sheriff.
While she waits for her attacker to be apprehended in the lower 48, Beth takes on a project to revamp the Benedict town newspaper. She knows enough to go where the story is, and thereâs clearly one behind Lindaâs death. As rumors of murder spread, suspicion falls upon the felons staying at a local halfway houseâand Beth herself. Intrigued by both the mystery and the wary folks who call Benedict home, Beth starts asking questionsâonly to find her investigation stirring up memories sheâd much rather had stayed forgottenâŚ
