What you need to know before your trail
Natalie lives a traditional lifestyle – and her followers are sick with envy. Her charming farmhouse on her working ranch is artfully cluttered, her husband is a handsome cowboy, her homemade sourdough boules are each more beautiful than the last. So what if there are nannies and producers and industrial-grade ovens behind the scenes? What her followers don’t know won’t hurt them.
Then, one morning, Natalie wakes up in a strange, horrible version of reality. Her home, her husband, her children—they’re all familiar, but something’s off. Is this a hoax? A reality show? A test from God? Natalie knows just two things for sure: this isn’t her perfect life, and she must escape, by any means possible.
Travel Guide
Idaho
Location is vague and deliberately so. This is not a novel of locations but one of character and character traits. In one way, the book is and could be set everywhere and anywhere.
Idaho is best known as being the “Gem State” It is also known as the potato state – as it produces roughly one-third of all U.S. potatoes. It is particularly known as being stunning in landscape terms and this includes the rugged Rocky Mountains, craters and snake rivers….the ideal place for an alternative universe!
