Cry Last Heard

by Hannah Nyala

She thought she left her darkest nightmare worlds away in the Australian outback. Now, terror will push her to the edge.... Shut down by the grief of losing the man she loved, Tally Nowata has come home to pursue the search-and-rescue work that is her passion. When a crank phone call leads Tally and a friend to the top of a treacherous peak, it is the start of a violent game that will force Tally not only to the heights of danger in Wyoming's Grand Tetons, but to the brink of sanity in a race to the death. A lethal predator is closing in on Tally. He's dead set on revenge -- and he's targeted the one thing Tally can't survive her child. Hannah Nyala, the real-life tracker who introduced Tally Nowata in the electrifying novel Leave No Trace, brilliantly defines a woman's determination to embrace life after her spirit is shattered -- and crafts a nail-biting chase across a hazardous landscape, where no one can rescue the rescuer.

Loved This Book!

This is the sequel to Leave No Trace. Read that book first. This sequel heaven a up loose ends. I could not put it down. Talk is quite a character. Her life and her search for meaning are fascinating. So are her skills. I highly recommend reading both books, especially if you are a woman who has been victimized.

Okay, Ms. Nyala, 13 years is long enough to come to the belief you're not really writing a fourth book. That's alright. You've given me enough to think about.

Eigen boekenkast.

Het eerste deel was zo goed ... Dit deel was dat, helaas, niet echt.

Leest makkelijk weg en houd je geboeid, maar is geen fantastisch boek.

Excellent book. Had I not read the precursor to this novel I may not have gotten past the first few chapters, however knowing the characters and loving the first novel kept me going. The more I read the easier it was to read and understand Tally and her thoughts. The story just kept getting better and better, and I have to say I was surprised near the end. One of the best features of the book was the long ending....after the climax the book continued on to finish (or at least somewhat finish) the characters' stories.

Found this book at a yardsale and didn't have high expectations, but once I started and got used to her quite unusual writing, it was hard to put it down! Really intense.
