Astray: A Fox Walker Novel

Book Four of the Award-Winning Fox Walker Novels

• A rugged and unfamiliar terrain.
• A ticking clock.
• And a missing woman who doesn’t want to be found.

When a young woman disappears into the wilderness leaving no prints behind, Fox Walker and Nataya are tasked with finding her trail. As the number of days spent searching grows, so does the number of people who are hunting for the missing woman. All of them want to find her. But not all of them want her rescued.

Time is of the essence, in a place where weather and terrain have their own schedule, and Walker’s wisdom and years of tracking experience will be challenged in a place both mystical and steeped with legends.

This time the search takes Walker and Nataya to the North Cascade Mountains in Washington State, where they must quickly adapt to the rugged environment of an unfamiliar location. Aided by a young Search and Rescue crew member, Walker must also adjust to having a third person on his team, while knowing better than anyone that not everyone who goes missing is lost … or wants to be found.

BOOK REVIEWS

“Indy has a fantastic way of grabbing the authenticity of real life search and rescue, survival, mystery and suspense that puts you on the edge of the cliff, wondering what’s next.”

—Carl LaCasse, former Search and Rescue Team Captain

“Astray is Indy Quillen’s finest novel to date—and her wildest, in every sense of the word. When Fox Walker and Nataya are forced out of their most treasured comfort zones, they must contend with both the unfamiliar wilderness of the Pacific Northwest and the intrusion of a third tracker into their team of two. On top of that, they are not the only ones following their quarry—a young woman who is doing everything she can to not be found.”

—Mark A. Clements, Award Winning author of The Land of Nod & Lorelei

“Not everyone who goes missing is lost … or wants to be found. Wisdom from Fox Walker.
ASTRAY: A Fox Walker Novel. It’s intense. It’s compelling. And it’s suspenseful story-telling at its finest. Author Indy Quillen has outdone herself with her latest offering in the Fox Walker book series.”

—Laura Taylor, 6-Time Romantic Times Award Winner

“A finely woven tale about things i love to hear about; wilderness, tracking. Search and rescue the Pacific Northwest and Native American culture. It was engaging with the right amount of tension throughout and a story I couldn’t predict. Kept me up late reading. It’s refreshing to read about characters who aren’t stupid. There are no hopeless damsels or drunk people. The evil is balanced with some other worldly goodness. I’ll read any other book this author writes and I hope the Fox Walker series will go to 20 books!”

—Linda Jo Hunter, author of Lonesome for Bears: A Woman’s Journey In The Tracks Of The Wilderness
