About this ebook

A man left to die in the Alaskan wilderness must somehow survive to get revenge on those who betrayed him in this "fun, energetic thrill-ride . . . a modern take on The Count of Monte Cristo " (Jeff Abbott, New York Times –bestselling author of Adrenaline ).

Forty and facing a mid-life crisis, Stu Stark has lost his mojo. He simply gave up after being fired from his prestigious job as a prosecuting attorney for losing the biggest case of his career. So when Stu's best friend gifts him a one-week trip into the Alaskan wilderness to rediscover his manhood, Stu thinks it just might do him some good. But after a horrible week, Stu is crushed when he realizes that no one is coming back for him. Dying, Stu is found by a grizzled old hunter who informs that winter has set in, and they're not going anywhere for a while.

So begins Stu's training to become the man he never was . . . and to get revenge on those who double-crossed him.

" [A] tense but thoroughly modern thriller of survival and revenge in which a man is forced to confront both deadly peril in the wild and a sadistic manipulator and unfaithful wife at home. Highly recommended for those who enjoy men's adventure tales." — Library Journal
