Refuge in the Woods

A child at the woodpile. Forty people hidden in the trees.

When Rook discovers a freezing boy behind the schoolhouse woodpile, Darren follows a trail into the woods—and finds a camp of families struggling to survive. Bringing them food is only the beginning.

As Mabel and Eli prepare for their baby, the people of Kettle Falls must decide how far they will go for those beyond the shelter of their own homes. In the sixth book of The Last Safe County, a community built on second chances faces a new test of courage, compassion, and belonging.
