The rugged landscape of Sequoia National Park is a challenge on the best of days—but when a park ranger discovers an abandoned exclusive campsite with an empty tent and high-end technical gear scattered on the shores of an alpine lake, the wilderness takes on a sinister new hue. Thirty-two-year-old Felicity Harland—a former FBI agent who left the service in the wake of a personal tragedy and has taken her skills off the grid—is brought in as chief investigator. As a federal agent with the Investigative Services Bureau, she tackles crimes that occur on National Parks lands: unexplained falls, domestic disputes, and now a possible murder case. The private company that set up the exclusive camp won't reveal their client list, leaving Felicity with zero clues. As she struggles to find a lead, she's also haunted by a painful past that dogs her at every step. But when she meets Ferdinand Huxley, a Navy SEAL turned park ranger, she begins to see the value in not just working with a partner but trusting one too. The investigation takes Felicity and Hux deep into a wilderness that tests their physical limits to the extreme—and to the mean streets of Los Angeles, where they begin to learn the grisly truth behind the campers' disappearance...

      This offbeat series launch from Kells (Girl Underwater) introduces an appealing crimefighting team. Curmudgeonly chief ranger Rick Corrigan has what he calls a situation at an abandoned luxury campsite perched above a lake in California’s Sequoia National Park. To look into the case, Corrigan teams Felicity Harland, a fledgling agent with the Investigations Services Bureau (in essence the FBI for the National Parks), with Ferdinand “Hux” Huxley, the ranger who discovered the abandoned campsite. When the body of TV star Tatum Delancey turns up in the lake, Felicity and Hux begin searching for Tatum’s male camping companion—not her husband—and try to determine whether she fell or was pushed to her death. As they hike through difficult terrain, they encounter a daunting number of false clues. Along the way, Felicity learns to rely on Hux’s talent for finding people, while he respects how she’s pushing herself to recover from a broken back but is “stubborn as hell.” Sharply drawn characters and striking descriptions of park scenery more than compensate for less than assured plotting. Fans of Scott Graham’s National Parks mysteries will want to check this one out. Agent: Beth Miller, Writers House.
