"These Silent Woods" by Kimi Cunningham Grant
听
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 has a lot to hide. Finch has been raised on the books filling the cabin鈥檚 shelves and the beautiful but brutal code of life in the wilderness. But she鈥檚 starting to push back against the sheltered life Cooper has created for her and he鈥檚 still haunted by the painful truth of what it took to get them there.
The only people who know they exist are a mysterious local hermit named Scotland, and Cooper's old friend, Jake, who visits each winter to bring them food and supplies. But this year, Jake doesn't show up, setting off an irreversible chain of events that reveals just how precarious their situation really is. Suddenly, the boundaries of their safe haven have blurred and when a stranger wanders into their woods, Finch鈥檚 growing obsession with her could put them all in danger. After a shocking disappearance threatens to upend the only life Finch has ever known, Cooper is forced to decide whether to keep hiding or finally face the sins of his past.
