Two fjords, an Irish wolfhound, and the hottest summer on record… What could possibly go wrong? For fifteen year-old Susie Stetler…everything! When the dread-locked surfer chic arrives in British Columbia from California, she realizes she has stepped into the Twilight Zone. Her eight year-old step-brother is cowboy mad. Her grandmother thinks rustic living is fun. And the handsome rancher's son who lives next door thinks she's girlfriend material….not! When the mountain erupts into a blazing inferno, it is up to Susie to get her family down the mountain... Alive! One part adventure, two parts drama, with a little bit of romance thrown in, that is Independence. If you are a fan of Heartland, horses, and adventure, then you'll enjoy this story of two strong women in a world on fire. Read it now. “Independence has all the makings of a great story �" for young and old alike. Hesse has created nuanced characters who come alive on the page, and tell a story filled with twists and turns. There is even a bit of a romance thrown into the mix.” The Canadian Horse Journals
