Rendezvous at Jumbo Pass: A Twisting Tale of Wilderness Survival
About this ebook
Their idyll darkens with Will's hellish predicament, as the seventh dream door crashes shut. He must act under agonizing pressure, and the disorientation of clashing realities. Will he find the strength and wisdom to overcome the odds and avoid disaster?
Rendezvous at Jumbo Pass breaks the mold of linear narrative by splitting its ending into multiple, coexisting plot threads, or timelines, twisting away from a nightmare hallway of seven doors. The story plays out a mystery of magic realism against the backdrop of vast natural beauty in the Purcell Mountains of British Columbia (think Groundhog Day in the heart of the Canadian wilderness).
Caught in the strands of a deadly time-loop, Will must face the choosing of a successful adventure, time after time until he gets it right.
