by Nicholas Evans
Two backcountry skiers find the body of a young woman
embedded in the ice of a remote mountain creek. All through the night, police
work with arc lights and chain saws to dig her out. But identification doesn't
take as long. Abbie Cooper is wanted for murder and acts of eco-terrorism, and
her picture is on law-enforcement computers all across America. But just how
did she die? And what was the trail of events that led this joyous, golden
child of a loving family so tragically astray?
'Sure to be a runaway success, this lyrical novel runs the gamut from
devastation to despair to deliverance. ' - Booklist.
'This fourth novel lacks the power and intensity of Evans's third, The
Horse Whisperer (1995), and it's not nearly as carefully written.' - PW.
