With a view to bridging cultural divides, she brings along a mixture of Canadian-born and immigrant youth. Trouble begins when two of the teenagers disappear into the wilderness during the night: Luc, a French/English-Canadian with a history of drug use, and Yasmina, an adventurous young woman from Iraq who dreams of becoming a human rights lawyer. Although frantic, their parents are strangely secretive amid suspicions of drug use and forbidden romance. But when a local farmer turns up dead and terrorist material is found on Luc’s computer, the dangers turn deadly. Now in a battle against both the elements and police, Amanda and Corporal Chris Tymko discover a far greater web of secrets and deception. As Amanda races to save the young people from danger, she finds herself fighting for stakes far higher than their own lives.Of Related InterestDo or DieBarbara FradkinThe Whisper of LegendsBarbara FradkinNone So BlindBarbara FradkinTumbled GravesBrenda ChapmanA Cold White FearR.J.
