A Deadly Decision

Escaping from the killer was the easy part, surviving the frozen mountain landscape is another story. When a hunter gives her a second chance at life, Emily must decide what she is going to do with it: safety and comfort or vengeance.

THE PRINCESS, THE HUNTSMAN, AND THE MONSTER by Erik Lynd features a subject found in news headlines and twisted into something resembling a fairy tale. I kept expecting a supernatural element, so the ending really caught me off guard. Basically, this is a coming of age story, with Emily discovering who she really is. Very different from Lynd's previous work.

As always,
