COVER YOUR TRACKS by Daco Auffenorde

COVER YOUR TRACKS by Daco Auffenorde #BookTrib Once you get beyond the absolute improbability of the plot, this is a heart pounding thriller. Margo, eight months pregnant, and Nick, a former Army Ranger, are the only survivors of an avalanche that destroyed the train they were on. The remainder of the novel follows the two of them as they try to survive in the snow-covered wilderness. But is Nick really a friend, or is there a malevolence about him? The two main (and only) characters are clearly drawn. The mountainous region and snowy weather is accurately described. Margo’s pregnancy is a well-defined part of the plot. Margo’s actions are often ill considered and weaken the realism of the plot. I enjoyed this thriller even with its short comings. This is a book for a lazy weekend and a cup of tea. 4 of 5 stars
