Cold weather is not something that works for me, so I was happy to be reading this exciting and informative novel by Kerry Donovan rather than participating--even though I'm grateful that there are many individuals who routinely work on or near the mountains to help those who enjoy skiing, hiking and mountain climbing... This is my first book in this series.
Readers have the opportunity to visit and read about a well-known Scotland area where one thankful parent whose child was saved had repaid the crew by providing technological advances that were the best available. These advantages, along with a well-trained local group of residents that had been helping visitors to their area for many years. And, so as soon as they learned that a young boy had been lost from a group of students with two teaching leaders, they were on the search immediately
And, joining this effort was our hero, Ryan Kaine, who immediately came to offer his help and, after proving to the locals that he had extensive knowledge of the area from his past, he set off to where he thought the boy would possibly be... This could have been a dramatic novel about the search and rescue activities, if Ryan Kaine was not an individual who was wanted by law enforcement...
We are at a time like what happens in the book. Who do we believe? Readers do not learn much about why Kaine is wanted. What we do know is that nearly 3000 people died during the incident, but he was never charged. Kaine came in to help using a different name and soon becomes a significant addition to the regular crew... and ultimately becomes aware of exactly who and why the young boy became lost!
Intrigue is the key word as more and more people get involved. And we soon learn that somebody called in to name Kaine was there and an armed team was sent in to find Kaine, while making it more difficult for finding the lost and possibly hurt boy...
Readers learn that, while Kaine might not be to blame for the major accident, his involvement was so traumatic to him, that he has taken it upon himself to save lives of others to atone for those who had died... I hope I get the chance to go back to read the first book and catch up on the series. Kaine is a character who downplays his role, leaving readers to make up our minds. He's a hero in this book and, right now, especially, we need heros who work for what is right. Highly recommended!
