Mountain Home is one of those rare stories where it is almost impossible to decide who you are rooting for. You have a protagonist who is classically in the wrong place at the wrong time while you are silently cheering the antagonist on as she ruthlessly chases down her demons.
Bracken Macleod crafts a fast-paced story full of action, tension, bullets, and explosions. There is even a hint of a monster beside the human variety, but it is the least of the problems for the people who find themselves under siege in this cozy restaurant with a view. Macleod shows he is a master of character and is capable of making his readers feel love, hate, compassion, and revulsion, sometimes all on the same page, and he makes it all look so easy.
Be prepared to choose a side, but know that you will not like doing so. Life is full of despicable people and when the line is drawn in the sand someone will eventually step across it.
Go get it on Amazon!
