This was an eerie, sad, page turner, the kind of stories I love.
A true-to-life story that had my emotions running high. I was on the edge of my seat reading this amazingly crafted tell of a couple on vacation in the mountains and their GPS.

My coffee went cold on my desk because I had to read this story without stopping.

I felt scared, hopeful, sick and sad - what great writing. John, you've got so much talent for storytelling - congratulations on another brilliant tale.
There was something so eerie about that GPS voice...
Well done!
The second reading (I did get a sneak preview of this) was just as good as the first. Each of your stories is a little gem...ready to be set in the crown that I hope will be your first book of short stories.
John Laird is one of the finest writers I know and this is just one example of his amazing talent.
I love the twist endings you give to so many of your books...and this one did not disappoint.
Amazing job.
Glynis, thank you for the great review/comments. After I read your take on it, I almost felt compelled to go back and read the story over again myself. Again, thank you.
It was my pleasure. Truely enjoyed
