Broken Trail

This trail will break you . . .

Recently separated and her writing career hanging by a thread, Clara needs to get a new story or risk losing her contract--and income--entirely. When a friend suggests interviewing the lone survivor of the recent disappearances on the newly opened Broken Trail, she is hooked. But when her interviewee mysteriously vanishes, Clara's only option is to hike the trail itself. It seems like a great story, and besides, it could be a great bonding experience for her and her teens, right?

Once in the woods, violent visions plague her dreams and begin to bleed into reality. When a close encounter with a malevolent spirit leaves the family scattered, Clara finds herself lost in the woods, stomach empty and boots sinking into mud after days of rain. A sea of forest stretches out around her on every side, and somewhere in there are her girls. She must find the strength to outsmart what prowls the forest to get her children out alive before the force that lurks between them destroys them all.
