Rust Creek

Sawyer Scott is a smart and ambitious college senior who seems to have the world on a string. But beneath her veneer of invincibility she is vulnerable, uncertain, and obsessive. When a detour on the way to a job interview takes Sawyer through the frozen Appalachian Mountains, a series of calamities lands her in a life or death struggle. Wounded, lost, and hunted by dangerous criminals, Sawyer confronts her own mortality for the first time.

Pushed to exhaustion by the elements, Sawyer finds an unlikely ally in Lowell Pritchert, a mysterious recluse whose motives for helping her are suspect. While both cops and criminals race to find her, Lowell’s mercurial temperament and troubled past threaten to drive her from the safety of his isolated home on the banks of Rust Creek.
