The Great Alone by Kristin Hannah

The Great Alone is a daring, stay-up-all-night story of love and the remarkable strength of women, from the multi-million copy bestselling author of The Women.

'A woman has to be tough as steel up here. You can't count on anyone to save you and your children. You have to be willing to save yourselves'

Alaska, 1974. Untamed. Unforgiving. Unpredictable.

For thirteen-year-old Leni Allbright, Alaska is supposed to be a fresh start. Her father, a former POW, is desperate to leave the world behind. Her mother, Cora, will follow the man she loves anywhere, even to the edge of the earth.

But as winter descends and darkness blankets the land, the Allbrights realize they are woefully unprepared. The danger doesn't just lurk in the wilderness outside; it lives within the walls of their own cabin.

In the shadow of a volatile marriage and a landscape that wants to kill them, Leni must decide: how far will she go to survive?

This new edition comes with exciting bonus content to dig deeper into The Great Alone: a conversation with Kristin Hannah and reading group questions.
