Summary
“You have to come here right now,” she hissed the second Van picked up.
“Hello to you, too, Nat.” A pause, then: “Why?”
“Jackie is in my apartment.”
“Huh? What are you talking about?”
“Jackie. Jackie Taylor. In my kitchen. Making actual eggs:”
“Like…fried?”
“Like whisked. In a bowl. There’s salt involved, Van.”
There was a pause. Then the dry scrape of Van’s voice: “Yeah. The Jackie that we ate and then shat out is making eggs in your kitchen, sure.”

Or, Nat copes with her trauma through journaling, a suggestion from her mandated therapy. But instead of writing about the wilderness, her thoughts spiral back to Jackie– what could have been if the crash never happened and if Jackie were still alive. It starts as harmless fiction. Healing, even. Until Jackie shows up in her apartment, alive and seemingly pulled straight from the pages Nat had been writing. Inspired by the movie, Ruby Sparks.

Summary
“Then the Lord said to Cain, ‘Where is your brother Abel?’ ‘I don’t know,’ he replied. ‘Am I my brother’s keeper?’”-Genesis 4:9
Javi survived the hunt. Travis and Natalie are determined to keep him alive. Bound by love and haunted by the horrors of the wilderness, they lean on each other to face the pain, the memories, and the burgeoning tension in the team. Together, they carry a different mark- one not of exile or curse, but of survival, forgiveness, and unbreakable love.
Each chapter will have two timelines- one wilderness, and one post-rescue.

Summary
Shauna didn’t sleep with Jeff. Jackie didn’t die in the snow.
Instead, they survived — together.
Now they share a college dorm the same way they once shared a bed in the wilderness. Jackie tells her what to eat, what to wear, when to breathe.
And Shauna listens. Always.
Because the only times she feels real is when Jackie’s telling her who to be.

Summary
It’s not the welcome home she had in mind, but then again, could she have ended up anywhere else? There was never going to be anyone to welcome her back or congratulate her. Even if the plane never crashed, even if she’d scored the winning goal at nationals. This has always been all she’d have, all she’d ever have.
or
Natalie struggles with the reality of coming back home.

Summary
Still, she didn’t reach out. She wouldn’t. She couldn't. Because love, for her, had always been an act of destruction. And if Van had found any measure of peace in the end, Taissa wouldn’t be the one to shatter it.

Summary
Tai shouldn't have been surprised when the droning lecture coaxed her temple against a cool plastered wall and the classroom around her blurred.
But she was surprised. Because when her mind flicked back on and her gaze refocused, she was outside.
And it was nighttime. And there was a dial phone in her ear and a glass box on all sides, and the stale air of the lecture hall had turned humid, heady—suffocating.
"Who is this?" The receiver tickled Tai's jaw as a voice broke through, and she flinched violently, stumbling back against the booth and letting the phone fall from her grip. It banged around the space before swinging sadly on its cord.
// OR: The one where Other Tai copes with the Tai/Van breakup by boarding a Greyhound and taking Tai to South Jersey, where Lottie Matthews is -thunderclap- living between hospital stays.

Summary
Directionless after flaming out of grad school, drinking herself to death alone in a squalid apartment, obsessed with someone who died almost a decade ago, 27-year-old Shauna Shipman is long past the point of hoping her life will get better. It doesn't help that one of her only friends, who she hasn't even seen in months, just dove headfirst off a hotel balcony. According to Nat, she was spouting some nonsense about "coming back soon"—but if there's one thing Shauna knows for sure, it's that dead people stay dead. Lottie's as gone as Jackie is, as gone as the rest of them, and she won't be coming back, not soon, not ever. Obviously.
(Asleep on the floor of the cabin as the first snow started to fall, Lottie made a bargain with the wilderness. Years later, confined in the mountains of Switzerland, months of isolation and electroshock unearthed something in her mind - not a figment of her imagination, but not quite a memory either. She's pretty sure she knows what happens next.)

Summary
She tells herself that if she had carried what Shauna did, a dead baby, a dead best friend, death itself, digested and forever part of her system, she’d be worse. That all her silence and her cruelty, the hardness in her voice, wasn’t meant for Melissa. It was armor, nothing more. Survival makes monsters of everyone. Hadn’t Melissa been hungry too? Hadn’t she, too, participated in their rituals? After all, who was she to judge?
With that in mind, she flips the phone open and dials the only number she has memorized.
OR
Post-Rescue Shaunahat.

Summary
2003.
Shauna Shipman writes horror. Real horror. The kind that makes you scared to turn the lights off. She's good at it. She knows what it's like to huddle around a campfire, trembling at shadows. She knows what human flesh tastes like.
And her readership loves it. Nobody moves more copies than her, except Stephen King.
Then Jackie Taylor shows up at an author meet and greet for Shauna's latest novel. Jackie, who she hasn't spoken to since that horrible month out in the woods. Jackie, who's haunted Shauna's every dream, every nightmare since 1996.
And maybe now Shauna can fix what she broke seven years ago.
Except, she might not get a chance. Something's happening. Their old teammates are dying. Dying in bloody, hideous ways. Dying the way people die in Shauna's books. Something followed them back from the Wilderness. And it wants them all dead.

Summary
It’s perverted, really. It’s gross and it’s weird and it’s wrong, Misty knows deep down, but it’s the only way she feels like she’s keeping them safe, alive. The pictures, they’re bad—but they’re also proof that Natalie and Travis are alive, out of the woods, living their lives and not regretting a single moment of it.
or, natalie, misty, and travis can’t seem to escape each other, in the years following rescue.
