Story
No electricity, no family, no connection to the outside world. For eight years, Cooper and his young daughter, Finch, have lived in isolation in a remote cabin in the northern Appalachian woods. And that's exactly the way Cooper wants it, because he's got a lot to hide. Finch has been raised on the books filling the cabin’s shelves and the beautiful but brutal code of life in the wilderness. But she’s starting to push back against the sheltered life Cooper has created for her - and he’s still haunted by the painful truth of what it took to get them there.

Excellent book!

This book tugged on your heart strings from the opening chapter. The narrator, Saskia Maareveld, is amazing with her ability to easily glide through American and Irish accents. I am sharing this book with others. One of my favorites!

cringe-worthy American accents
Reviewed: 07-22-19
I truly love the book series but had wished the author had not brought the story to the United States. I couldn't help but cringe every time the narrator spoke in an American accent. Sadly, it was way off.
