Publisher's summary

A 13-year-old girl on a family vacation becomes stranded alone in the wilderness when the family's GPS leads them astray. A compelling survival story for ages 10 to 14, for fans of Hatchet and The Skeleton Tree.

Francie and her parents are on a spring road trip: driving from British Columbia, Canada, to hike in the Grand Canyon. When a shortcut leads them down an old logging road, disaster strikes. Their truck hits a rock and wipes out the oil pan. They are stuck in the middle of nowhere.

Francie can't help feeling a little excited—she'd often imagined how she'd survive if she got stranded in the bush, and now here they are. But will her survival skills—building fires, gathering dandelion leaves and fir needles for tea—be enough when hours stretch into days?

Critic reviews

2021, Arthur Ellis Award—Best Juvenile/Young Adult Crime Book

2022, Red Cedar Book Award

"Frances Greenslade is brilliant in her portrayal of the half-suspected world that lies just beyond the senses of every 13 year old. The book's a triumph." (Alan Bradley, best-selling author of the Flavia de Luce series)

"Rendered with exquisite sensory detail, this hero’s journey is a resonant read for unsettling times." (starred review, Kirkus Reviews)

The start of something great!

In the midst of dire circumstances, Greenslade provides a unique view of the charms to be found in the woods. The forest is not always the malevolent character it is usually portrayed. Refreshing!
