In a world ravaged by famine and violence, an aging woman sacrifices everything to secure her family's survival, retreating alone into the unforgiving wilderness. Battling starvation, predators, and the slow erosion of her humanity, she forges a fragile existence in the shadow of a vast, merciless mountain. But when strangers stumble into her solitary world—some desperate, others dangerous—she must decide whether survival demands her soul, or if a different kind of strength still remains. Haunting, visceral, and deeply moving, In the Mountain’s Shadow is a story of resilience, sacrifice, and the fierce, enduring spark of hope.
Original, deftly scripted, and an inherently fascinating read… a compelling, thought-provoking, imaginative and memorable read.” — Midwest Book Review
