One wrong step. One brutal attack. One impossible choice.
Perfect for fans of Hatchet and The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon, this white-knuckle survival thriller follows a teenage girl's desperate escape through the unforgiving Appalachian wilderness.
No food. No water. No signal.
While walking a remote rural road, Melender and her mother are ambushed by a pack of feral dogs and forced over a near-vertical cliff. They land on a jagged ledge-wounded, stranded, and completely alone.
No one knows where they are, and no one is coming to save them.
To save her mother's life, Melender must leave her behind. If she stays, they both die. To find help, she must first scale the cliff-then survive a twenty-mile trek through predator-filled woods, where every mile brings her closer to rescue and deeper into the painful truths of her past.
As the distance from her mother grows, Melender realizes that nature isn't her only enemy. To survive the journey, she must face a psychological battle just as dangerous as the rattlesnakes on the rocks.
Against the Pack is a gritty, emotionally intense story of resilience that explores the complex, unbreakable bond between mother and daughter and the indomitable will it takes to crawl back from the edge.
