Summary
Wild meets Jodi Picoult in the emotional new novel from the acclaimed author of House Broken.A troubled, young widow hikes from Yosemite Valley deep into the wilderness on the John Muir Trail to elude her shameful past in this emotionally gripping story from the author of House Broken.With her thirtieth birthday looming, Liz Kroft is heading for the hills-literally. Her emotional baggage weighs her down more than her backpack, but a three-week trek promises the solitude she craves-at least until her boyfriend, Dante, decides to tag along. His broad moral streak makes the prospect of confessing her sins more difficult, but as much as she fears his judgment, she fears losing him more. Maybe.They set off together alone under blue skies, but it’s not long before storms threaten and two strange brothers appear along the trail. Amid the jagged, towering peaks, Liz must decide whether to admit her mistakes and confront her fears, or face the trail, the brothers and her future alone.
