Josh and three other campers at Simon Lake are high up on a mountain when an earthquake hits. The rest of the camp is wiped out in a moment—leaving Josh, Derrick, Brooke, and Shannon alone, hundreds of miles from the nearest town, with meager supplies, surrounded by dangerous Alaskan wildlife.

After a few days, it’s clear no rescue is coming. Distant military activity in the skies suggests this natural disaster has triggered a political one—and America is under siege.

Kirkus called Paul Greci’s debut young adult novel The Wild Lands “heart-racing,” Booklist called it “heart-thumping suspense for readers who liked Rick Yancey’s The 5th Wave,” and BCCB compared it to Hatchet. In Greci’s newest survival adventure, he adds international intrigue to this twisty story of teens battling nature.
