About the Author:
Tom Eslick is also the author of Tracked in the Whites, the book that first introduced Will Buchanan, and Snow Kill. He is an English teacher who has been hiking the White Mountains for more than twenty-two years.
From Booklist:
As a favor, teacher Will Buchanan escorts Erin Wickham, his girlfriend Laurie's niece, to a lodge in the White Mountains, where Erin will meet her brother. After the brother falls to his death, Erin, a student at Will's school, accuses Will of rape and disappears. No one believes Will is innocent; he searches for Erin to clear his name and uncover the connection between Erin's disappearance and her brother's murder. This third Will Buchanan mystery sets a breakneck pace and never lets it slacken. Eslick combines realistic accounts of hiking and tracking with nonstop action, producing in the process a kind of Raiders of the Lost Ark in the North Woods. The only misstep is the characterization of Laurie, the village police chief and Will's love interest, whose stupidity is equaled only by her meanness. Fans of outdoor mysteries who can concentrate on the action and the autumnal New England scenery will find similarities here to the work of Nevada Barr. John Rowen
