About this listen

In the frozen wilderness of Alaska, a cabin is readied for the winter. Jonesy and Lisa, with their loyal dog Lad, have been preparing their home to avoid a repeat of their horrific first year living apart from civilisation. They survived that. They’ll survive this. But then the strangers arrive. Two people who are even more desperate to survive, who have clawed their way through hell to reach Jonesy and Lisa, and who will drag them back down there with them. And out in the forest, that other cabin waits for someone to return....

Filled a stormy day

This was okay, early on I didn’t know if I could cope with it which is odd because I’m a fan of Jeff Harding’s narration (some of his females are dubious but they were ok in this).

I don’t think this is a spoiler, hope not, but there’s no backstory really and it left me wanting, something. But not for long, it’s not memorable just an entertaining few hours.

Gruesome

An interesting story but the narrator made it hard to listen to as every sentence had an inflection at the end which became quite annoying

Some bad grammar, didn’t like narrator’s tone, but excellent story

The narrator has a weird rising intonation that I found offputting and unpleasant.
Bad grammar includes the protagonist telling the dog to “lay down next to me” (should be “lie”).

However, the plot is excellent. Quite traumatic, but exciting.

Brilliant

This is a brilliant story and one of the best I've listened to in a while, it's a gripping thriller you can't put down until the end.

A gripping yarn

Liked the pace and the story. Although guesses the outcome towards the last few chapters, but not enough to spoil it

I had previously found the narrator somewhat annoying on some other books but he has excelled in these stories by the same author- or maybe I have grown accustomed? Either way a great story well told

Well worth a listen

Good story telling. Slow start but once going it kept me interested throughout. An enjoyable listen and one I will revisit.

great stressful thriller

A hugely entertaining thriller, it really kept you stressed over what was happening throughout (and of course, the question of "will the dog survive" lol)
Highly recommended for all thrill seekers, it's a fab story read based on the Alaskan dark heavy winters and a survivalist couple who switched civilisation to remote hard living.
I questioned their reasons (the wife's especially) and i felt that motives were often questionable throughout the book. Also sometimes they were a bit slow on catching on things (while it was clear as daylight to the reader), purposefully not understanding obvious things. That was a bit frustrating.
But overall it was a well written and well narrated audiobook, really glad i picked it up as a December read.
