Rendezvous at Jumbo Pass: A Twisting Tale of Wilderness Survival (My Country) Kindle Edition

4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars 2 ratings

A romantic wilderness cabin becomes a dream-box of catastrophe and survival, in this true adventure with a paranormal twist.

Will, a treeplanter, hikes with a companion to meet his wife and 3-year-old daughter in BC's remote Jumbo Pass. An overnight storm pushes them to the brink of deadly choices, at fate's mercy.

Caught in the strands of a deadly time-loop, Will must navigate a series of doorways to survival. Each choice means a different outcome, a different life… or even death.

The story’s mystery plays out against the backdrop of vast natural beauty in the Purcell Mountains of British Columbia (think Groundhog Day meets the Twilight Zone, in the heart of the Canadian wilderness). Readers find Rendezvous “beautifully written… Though the narrative thread twists and loops, its captivating forward momentum never skips a beat.”

Editorial Reviews

Review

Exciting and honest writing that awakens us to our humanity and interconnectedness with nature. The gripping story technique creates a transparency in even the simplest activities of his characters, holed up in their remote cabin on the crest of a mountain, and that makes every choice, every moment verge on the miraculous. --Frank Burnaby, author of Island Born
Suspense-filled details culminating in twists of possibilities... a slide show of white-knuckle catastrophe. --Raye Rabbitfoot, author of
Ley Lines
Rendezvous took me by surprise in its utter seamlessness. Though the narrative thread twists, loops and even knots, its captivating forward momentum never skips a beat.--Sally Ross, author of The Selfward Facing Way.
Nowick Gray artfully weaves us through a harrowing journey of 'what ifs,' forcing us to reflect upon those times we desired something badly and pursued it perhaps recklessly. This was an easy and enjoyable read that left me contemplating my own reasons for hiking in the wild. --mountaineering enthusiast Kim Maddin

From the Author

The core story in Rendezvous is a real-life adventure my family and I experienced in 1987 in the Purcell Mountains of British Columbia. The successful outcome of that adventure, with its numerous challenges and pitfalls, allowed me to muse on a variety of "what-if" scenarios stemming from the actual story line--most of them disastrous. In the paranormal sense, and structurally in the novella, I conceived of these as alternative timelines or parallel realities. Somehow karmically the other characters and I "chose" the one scenario leading to our survival.
