***Story centers around a family with a college-aged daughter who finds herself mixed up with extream environmentalist fanatics and then dead. The story examines the idea of a "divide" both literally and figuratively. I enjoyed the book. I felt I could relate to the daughter in the way it's easy to get caught up in radical ideas as a young and naive college girl. And also I could relate to the married couple and the way life comes in and "divides". Easy read.

Sometimes this book was difficult to read having been through some trials with my own teenage daughter. I feel very fortunate that mine came through it alive and well. The characters were very real to me in how they all handled the tragedies they were faced with. I think I'm ready to read something light and funny after this one!

A compelling mystery set in the great west by the author of the Horse Whisperer. This is a real page turner.

Loved this book. Better than his "Horse Whisperer"

This book is good, but not as good as The Horsewhisperer. I thought that the author spent too much time on the back history and not enough details at the end.
All in all, the book was good, but I wouldn't put it in my top 20.
