This takes a huge emotional toll on him. He is struggling with a lot of pain, when he is hired to find Maggie St James, who was a popular author who suddenly disappeared. Maggie's mother tells him that she may have been wanting to be lost. Travis follows her trail, which leads deep into the woods. He comes to a very hidden community. In this community, the people inside have chosen to withdraw from society, knowing that they are safe when inside, yet some within the community begin to wonder if there isn't a way to leave every once in a while, if there is something on the outside, like medical help, that they need. The story shifts between these characters. (  ) cjyap1 | Oct 20, 2023 | nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

"The New York Times bestselling author of The Wicked Deep weaves a richly atmospheric adult debut following three residents of a secluded, seemingly peaceful commune as they investigate the disappearances of two outsiders. Travis Wren has an unusual talent for locating missing people. Hired by families as a last resort, he requires only a single object to find the person who has vanished. When he takes on the case of Maggie St. James-a well-known author of dark, macabre children's books-he's led to a place many believed to be only a legend. Called Pastoral, this reclusive community was founded in the 1970s by like-minded people searching for a simpler way of life. By all accounts, the commune shouldn't exist anymore and soon after Travis stumbles upon it...he disappears. Just like Maggie St. James. Years later, Theo, a lifelong member of Pastoral, discovers Travis's abandoned truck beyond the border of the community. No one is allowed in or out, not when there's a risk of bringing a disease-rot-into Pastoral. Unraveling the mystery of what happened reveals secrets that Theo, his wife, Calla, and her sister, Bee, keep from one another. Secrets that prove their perfect, isolated world isn't as safe as they believed-and that darkness takes many forms. Hauntingly beautiful, hypnotic, and bewitching, A History of Wild Places is a story about fairy tales, our fear of the dark, and losing yourself within the wilderness of your mind"-- Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

That is to say! If you're looking for a mysterious story wrapped inside an even more mysterious village in the woods, this book is for you! I loved how it was written, I thought the book kept it's tension well paced and I was genuinely surprised by the twists and turns in it by the end! And while you may not root for any particular character, I thought they were well written!
3 Stars for me, but I'm sure other people will love this book. (
