"Chased would be a great addition to a k-12 Christian school library. Middle schoolers and up will enjoy it." - Library Lady's Kid LitRemember last summer when my sisters, friends, and I survived an avalanche? It was a little embarrassing when all our neighbors saw us on the news. But I love being outdoors, and what are the odds that another tragedy would strike us? I mean, really, has anyone calculated the statistics of being hit with two natural disasters? It has to be low, so of course our families planned to backpack again this summer. When we first met Thad, a dehydrated hiker on the trail, we gave him water and food and helped him recover. He seemed harmless until he told us to hike a few extra miles at sunset. Then my younger sister Lydie found a hand-drawn map that Thad dropped, and we discovered why he was so eager to get away from us. So eager that he started chasing us. We decided to flee from Thad, and now we have to climb up unforgiving ridges, sneak through the night, and - is that thunder and lightning? Why did we bother helping him anyway? To make matters worse, I have a nagging worry that my older sister Ellie is preparing to move away from home. What is God's plan for us? How will we get away from Thad before it's too late?"...realistic, exciting, and suspenseful...Chased is the perfect sequel to Avalanche. It's gripping, suspenseful, entertaining, and, best of all, Christian." -David M., Beta Reader
