Untraceable

By Shelli R. Johannes
Untraceable by Shelli R. Johannes digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Everyone leaves a mark.
What would you do if yours was erased?


Grace has lived in the Smokies with her forest ranger father, learning about wildlife, tracking, and wilderness survival.

When her dad goes missing on a routine patrol, Grace refuses to believe he's dead.

 

She fights against town authorities, tribal authorities, and the forces of nature to find him.

One day, while out tracking clues, Grace is rescued from danger by a cute guy with an intoxicating accent and a secret. Soon, Grace becomes entangled in a web of conspiracy, deception, and murder.

This time, it's going to take a lot more than a compass and an attitude to save everything she loves.

"Untraceable will tug at and rip out your heart, yet cause you to fall in love with a new kind of hero who is vulnerable, unyielding in her convictions, and impossible to forget." - Suspense Magazine

"A dramatic entanglement of mystery, deception and teen romance." - Kirkus Reviews

“This stars with a pretty interesting beginning. Grace is looking for her dad after he's gone missing - searching the woods for clues. But the middle slowed way down. I like the rep of this highlighting poaching. However, I found Grace to be a bit inconsistent and a bit annoying. She wasn't quite the forest expert I'd hoped she'd be. The middle slowed way down and the ending felt a bit rushed. But it does have good rep about some of the issues facing our forests and I did appreciate that. A huge thank you to the author and publisher for providing an e-ARC via Netgalley. This does not affect my opinion regarding the book.”
“I received a copy from Netgalley, in exchange for an honest review. Actual Rating: 3.5 This was a great read. The story is simple. It also contains a love triangle between Grace, her best friend Wyn, and a cute guy named Mo. It seems to incorporate many different dystopian books such as Uglies, and The Hunger Games. The cover is great. I love Grace. She is smart, stubborn, and impulsive. She is looking for her dad, to prove that he is alive and not dead. She has been friends with Wyn since she was young. Wyn is her best friend who loves her. He is caring and smart. However, he was no match for Mo. Morris aka Mo is a cute guy that Grace met in the woods. They fall in love with each other, while she still led Wyn on. The ending was sad. I can't believe that . Also, I can't believe that . I am glad that . Can't wait to read the last two books of the trilogy. Overall, an enjoyable read.”
“Grace has been the outdoorsy type her whole life living in the Smokies, her dad being a ranger taught her everything he knew, but her worst fears come to life when her own father suddenly disappears. She knows that her father is extremely skilled and knows the ground the live on like the back of his own hand so she has to use all her knowledge to find him. The story gets wild when everyone tells her to forget her obsession with finding her father, and she starts to wonder if there's a deeper reason behind his disappearance, a conspiracy of some sorts perhaps. Layered with quirky characters, deceit, broken hearts and betrayal on top of a mystery that encompasses Grace's entire existence and the need to find the truth, she not only puts her heart on the line but also plunges into deeper realms of a forest she thought she knew. Great story, fast pasting, intriguing characters and good build up of dread made this for a intense but really enjoyable read. The connection of Grace's dad going missing and his motto that nothing is untraceable was quite brilliant, and I cheered on Grace to prove him right so that she could get her dad back.”
