I went in expecting a thriller and some serious dark secrets and maybe horror elements. Not so much.
This book is about Cooper and his daughter, Finch who live together off the grid in a cabin in the woods. They've been there for 8 years since Finch was a baby. Cooper keeps their existence pretty secret for good reasons. Cooper's friend Jake always visits once per year to bring them supplies. This book gives a peak into their lives on a year in which Jake doesn't show up and a series of events jeopordizes the secrecy of their lives. It's not a thriller. There's no horror. It's just about a man coming to terms with the mistakes of his past and trying to figure out how to create a worthy future for his daughter.
Is it a good book? Yeah, its fine.
It didn't blow my mind but the characters were likeable.
I'm not a huge fan of literary fiction which is why I didn't rate it higher.

Originally I'd planned a 3.5 star rating, but upon finishing it, a four star feels more in line with how I feel having finished it.
