Description
A haunting novel about trauma, loss and family, Hurt Mountain follows an estranged mother and father as they join forces to uncover the truth about their missing daughter. A series of disappearances across the country may finally lead them to the truth, but will it trigger a backslide into grief and obsession? When a young girl is found at the wheel of a car on a Colorado highway, her only word being "Hurt", she opens up a floodgate of memories for those around her. As one of these individuals, an ex-wife with a troubled past, becomes embroiled in caring for the girl, dark secrets begin to surface. The story is a complex exploration of family dynamics and the power of the past to shape our present.
