A relaxing camping break for Iraqi war vet Harper Jennings and her husband takes an unpleasant turn when Harper stumbles across a dead body". Harper Jennings mother, Iraqi war vet and archaeology graduate knows she should be counting her blessings that she s able to enjoy a child-free camping trip with husband Hank. Hank's recovery from a brain injury after falling from their roof is nothing short of miraculous. But . . . Harper misses baby Chloe. And she worries that, in being so wrapped up in her toddler, she has lost her own identity. But her worries pale into insignificance when she stumbles across a body in the woods. Accident? Harper doesn't think so, and nor does Ranger Daniels, who seems to blame local militia known as the Hunt Club who will do anything, it seems, to protect the land they see as their birthright. Harper wonders what exactly she's doing, in some dark state forest, tripping over corpses, when she could be at home with her little girl but when a fellow camper's husband goes missing, she finds herself reluctantly sucked into the hunt, and into a waking nightmare...

Mystery fiction.

Amateur sleuth mystery.
