Resumen del Editor

The rugged landscape of Sequoia National Park is a challenge on the best of days - but when a park ranger discovers an abandoned exclusive campsite with an empty tent and high-end technical gear scattered on the shores of an alpine lake, the wilderness takes on a sinister new hue.

Thirty-two-year-old Felicity Harland - a former FBI agent who left the service in the wake of a personal tragedy and has taken her skills off the grid - is brought in as chief investigator. As a federal agent with the Investigative Services Bureau, she tackles crimes that occur on National Parks lands: unexplained falls, domestic disputes, and now a possible murder case.

The private company that set up the exclusive camp won’t reveal their client list, leaving Felicity with zero clues. As she struggles to find a lead, she’s also haunted by a painful past that dogs her at every step. But when she meets Ferdinand Huxley, a Navy SEAL turned park ranger, she begins to see the value in not just working with a partner but trusting one, too.

The investigation takes Felicity and Hux deep into a wilderness that tests their physical limits to the extreme - and to the mean streets of Los Angeles, where they begin to learn the grisly truth behind the campers’ disappearance....

Entertaining listen with a good narration, but…

Why did the author make derogatory comments about millennials constantly when the two main characters are millennials?! It made no sense and was very distracting.

Otherwise, it was entertaining and I would listen to the next in the series.

Wonderfully gripping story.

This novel pulled me in immediately & couldn't stop listening! Narration is a bit wonky at times, but I still pushed through... glad I did, the ending was so unexpected! Enjoy!

Good story

Narration was weird. Couldn’t tell who was talking in the weird voice randomly. But liked the story.

What’s up with the narrator?

Great work, except for the narrator was switching to some weird voice some random time and I don’t understand why

Narration jarring

Story and setting very entertaining but narration would randomly switch tone and tempo like the main character was possessed. Hoping the next book does not have the same problem.

Good story

The voices seemed to change. Odd. Liked the storyline and characters and vivid scenery. Ready to read the next one

Amazing author, great narrator, horrible editing

First - Claire Kells is amazing. If you haven’t read Girl Underwater - get it!

I’ve been waiting excitedly for this author to publish a new book. Narrator is great - but there are areas that sound like they had someone else read a sentence and then spliced it in. It’s distracting and very obvious.

Claire Kells writes another winner

Another awesome read by Claire Kells- next to impossible to put down. Beautiful descriptions of national parks

Great start to a new series!

Special Agent Felicity Harland of the Investigative Services Bureau which deals with crimes occurring on National Park lands is sent to Sequoia NP to investigate the disappearance of a celebrity and her companion. Her partner at this site is former navy SEAL and accomplished tracker Ranger Ferdinand Huxley (Hux) who is k in this wintry, large, wild park with some serious elevation challenges. With the help of Search and Rescue, complete with a dive team, the body of the celebrity is found. Now the question becomes: suicide, accident, or homicide. Excellent development of characters and story, complete with a final twist that totally blindsided me!
I bought this one after reading book two courtesy of NetGalley, and now I wait for book three!
Natalie Naudus is the narrator who is very good but has problems with her recording booth.

audio issue

Entertaining story and good narration but odd voice change periodically. Mostly with main female character but sometimes it happened to other characters. It was distracting and didn't make sense. Not sure if it was a recording issue or narration problem.
