Big Sky, Montana mountains are the setting for this excellent, action packed novel.

Knowing it was only a matter of time before they were found, the day has come, and the three have to go on the run. Stealing a plane in a desperate bid to get away, the plane is shot at, crashes and Tony is killed, while the kids are on the run in the mountains. With help from their estranged aunt, and Tony’s boss Nick, a game of cat and mouse takes place with the kids, until the patriarch of the family Frankie shows up, a horrible, overbearing woman, do things really amp up. Filled with shocking secrets and reveals, this book is one of the best of the summer. You will not want to put it down.
