After surviving the private plane crash in the Colorado Rockies that kills the pilot, Allison Carpenter must also survive the wilderness as she makes her way through the mountains. But the wilderness isn't the only threat Allison faces. Her story slowly unfolds to reveal what she is running from--and to.

Meanwhile, Allison's mother Maggie learns that Allison was likely killed in the crash. Estranged for two years, she begins to delve into Allison's life, trying to understand why she was on that plane and who her daughter had become. Maggie's findings and Allison's reflections converge to reveal explosive secrets that endanger them both--and many others.

Freefall is a solid thriller that effectively uses alternating narratives to reveal the story, while elements of wilderness survival, family tension, moneyed influence, and corporate corruption provide a dizzying array of backdrops that keep the reader guessing. Read my full review.
