About this listen
A fearless woman, raised in the forest, fights against a group of powerful men in a novel about good versus evil, the enduring nature of myth, and the power of love by #1 New York Times bestselling author Dean Koontz.
Raised in the wilderness by her late great-uncle, Vida is a young woman with an almost preternatural affinity for nature, especially for the wolves that also call the forested mountains home. Formed by hard experience, by love and loss, and by the prophecies of a fortuneteller, Vida just wants peace. If only nearby Kettleton County didn’t cast such a dark shadow.
It’s where José Nochelobo, the love of Vida’s life and a cherished local hero, died in a tragic accident. That’s the official story, but Vida has reasons to doubt it. The truth can’t be contained for long. Nor can the hungry men of power in Kettleton who want something too: that Vida, like José, disappear forever. One by one they come for her, prepared to do anything to see their plans through to their evil end. Vida is no less prepared for them.
Vida, the forest, and its formidable wonders are waiting. She will not rest until goodness and order have been restored.

Critic reviews
“Golden Voice January LaVoy delivers an exceptional performance as Vida, who possesses a profound understanding of the mountains where she was raised.… LaVoy's precise and skillful portrayal of each character and moment adds depth to the narrative, enhancing the listening experience. The contrast between LaVoy's initial serene depiction of Vida and the men's shock at the violence of her quest for revenge is particularly striking. Overall, this audiobook combines an outstanding story with a memorable performance.”—AudioFile Magazine, Earphones Award Winner
“A page-turning thriller that combines a touch of magic with deep love for the natural world.”—Kirkus Reviews

Heartwarming
A story of the evil of modern technology v tradition and history. Told through the story of love, hope and loss but ultimately heartwarming.

Rambling
I used to really enjoy DKs novels but I find them to ramble on scene setting before getting on with a good tale. I must just be getting old.
Narration good

A story by a boomer...!
Koontz really shows he is a "boomer" with this story. the story line was primitive and unbelievable. the amount of false information about green energies twisted into a sick plot portrays a picture of an older writter who has difficulties understanding the modern world. worst story I have ever read by Koontz. I loved the Odd Thomas series, but this was more than dissapointing.
