SECLUSION

Within the wilderness of nature, we seek the solitude that only such a place can give us, but just how far into the wilds of our own mind to find solitude must we travel, before we enter a world of veritable seclusion? One of which there may never be a chance to escape. -MS ChambersMina Walter has the life of her dreams. Living in Lakewood Colorado near the beautiful Rocky Mountains, Mina is a bestselling author and married to the most incredible man in the world. Life couldn’t be any better. Her husband Zander, a huge outdoor enthusiast, pursues his lifelong dream of climbing the Swiss Alps and hiking the Dolomite Mountains in Italy. With a book tour coming up, Mina’s not able to join him but encourages him to go. Zander travels to the Alps, but when the greatest adventure of his life takes a completely different turn, he finds himself lost in the unforgiving savage winter of the massive Dolomites and fighting with everything he has, just to survive. His disappearance leaves Mina completely destroyed and lost without him. She can’t stand any more pity or write a word at all for the horrible thoughts and dreams of Zander, and not knowing what really happened to him. To escape the pain and reality, Mina goes to her family’s cabin in the Rockies and shuts herself away from the world, submerging herself into her memories so she can write. But that submersion causes her mind to slip into another place altogether. A place where she can be happy again, a place where her husband is alive, a place where she can live out her days in utter Seclusion.
