About the Book Chased

Book: Chased

Author: M. Liz Boyle

Genre: Christian Y.A.

Release date: June 1, 2020

It’s been a year since Marlee, her sisters, and the Miles boys survived an avalanche. Sure, it was a little embarrassing for them when all the neighbors saw them on the news, but they love being outdoors, and what are the odds that another tragedy would strike this adventurous group? Has anyone calculated the statistics of being hit with two natural disasters? It has to be low, so of course, the two families planned to backpack again this summer.

When the teens first meet Thad, a dehydrated hiker on the trail, they give him water and food and help him recover. He seems harmless until he tells them to hike a few extra miles at sunset. Then Lydie finds a hand-drawn map that Thad dropped, and they discover why he is so eager to get away from the Stanley girls and Miles boys. So eager that he starts chasing them.

Now they have to climb up unforgiving ridges, sneak through the night, and – is that thunder and lightning? To make matters worse, Marlee has a nagging worry that her older sister Ellie is preparing to move away from home.

What is God’s plan? How will they get away from Thad before it’s too late?

My Thoughts on Chased

Book one in this series is titled Avalanche.  And while you won’t be forced to read it first you really should as it gives you the backstory on the teens and explains some of the dynamics between them.  

In this book, Chased, we find the crew of four teens and their parents off on another adventure.  This time it’s a hike.  The kids are off on their own and their parents will meet them later.  The problem?  When the group of teens encounters a dehydrated hiker only to discover he’s a treasure seeker and now he’s out to get them because they saw his map!

Can they outwit and outrace this madman and the man he has working with him?  What a great reward for their good deed of sharing and caring.  Now they’re being chased and threatened and they’re not quite sure how this will end up or what their next step should be. 

From hiking in the dark to flash floods this book is full of action and surprises.  Plus you get to watch a bit of family drama and a relationship develop.  

I have really enjoyed this series.  Yes, it is young adult fiction but this adult has enjoyed it.  They are short and fast reads for me.  My older girls are also enjoying this series now.  We highly recommend them.
