Scott Free

Description

Miles from anywhere and anyone, at the mercy of the brutal elements, he must dig deep just to survive. While his father frantically rallies the rescue workers, Scott, in a desperate bid for safety, stumbles on a remote, inhabited cabin and thinks his troubles are over.

Reviews

The sort of thriller that is a 'page-turner' and 'hard to put down'. It is easy to laugh at these clich s of the blurb writer's lowly art, but what do you say about a book that keeps you turning the pages and proves impossible to put down? The point about such clich s is not that they register a failure of imagination but that they state the obvious with precision and verbal economy. Here a light aircraft crashes in a storm, the pilot is killed, and the solitary passenger finds himself lost in a frozen wilderness. Then he discovers a remote cabin and the terror begins. Even the plot piles clich on top of clich , but if it didn't the suspense would be lost and the tension that every thriller writer must crank up would vanish.
