Summary
A father and daughter living in the remote Appalachian mountains must reckon with the ghosts of their past in Kimi Cunningham Grant's These Silent Woods, a mesmerizing audiobook of suspense.
No electricity, no family, no connection to the outside world.
For eight years, Cooper and his young daughter, Finch, have lived in isolation in a remote cabin in the northern Appalachian woods. And that's exactly the way Cooper wants it, because he's got a lot to hide. Finch has been raised on the books filling the cabin’s shelves and the beautiful but brutal code of life in the wilderness. But she’s starting to push back against the sheltered life Cooper has created for her - and he’s still haunted by the painful truth of what it took to get them there.
The only people who know they exist are Scotland, an overly friendly hermit with murky intentions, and Cooper's old friend, Jake, who visits each winter to bring them food and supplies. But this year, Jake doesn't show up, setting off an irreversible chain of events that reveals just how precarious their situation really is. Suddenly, the boundaries of their safe haven have blurred - and when a stranger wanders into their woods, Finch’s growing obsession with her could put them all in danger. When a shocking disappearance threatens to upend the only life Finch has ever known, Cooper is forced to decide whether to keep hiding - or finally face the sins of his past.
Vividly atmospheric and masterfully tense, These Silent Woods is a poignant story of survival, sacrifice, and how far a father will go when faced with losing it all.
"The story unwinds at a slow pace, but the denouement is dramatic, surprising, and, finally, gratifying." (AudioFile)

Simple, elegant & meaningful
Such a quiet, contained & emotionally resonant story told sparingly & beautifully. A love story, a thriller & a parable all wrapped up in one. Even a totally unexpected twist. I loved it. Hope there’s a Netflix series soon…

Engaging, emotional, beautifully narrated
my first Audible listen and I went through this much quicker than I had planned grabbing a few minutes even here and there. For me, this was wonderful as a parent to see the best and worse that a child's presence and protection can bring. Thrilling, engaging, a love story ans a fantastic ending which had me weeping with as much sadness as joy.

Very, very good. Well written, well narrated and a great story. Enjoyed it a lot and would recommend highly. Didn't lull or get boring on any part which allowed for a swift listen as you wanted to keep going.
