Mount Snow

By: A.C. Hessenauer

Narrated by: Chris Yeschenko

It’s 2005, and Teddy Ellsworth is 18; about to graduate, and working on getting his driver’s license, he has always been a bit different—awkward, introspective, and quietly neurodivergent. Teddy joins his father for a hunting trip in Vermont’s sprawling Green Mountain National Forest, accompanied by his father’s med school buddies and their kids. The group embarks on what’s meant to be a bonding experience.

But the trip spirals into a nightmare when the hunters become the hunted, and Teddy finds his strengths and weaknesses put to the ultimate test. As the group’s fragile unity fractures under the weight of fear and primal survival instincts, Teddy must navigate a labyrinth of danger, self-discovery, and budding romance.

This fast-paced, slow-burn folk horror thriller weaves tension and dread into a haunting exploration of human fragility, resilience, and the lengths we will go to in order to survive.

This Author Never Dissapoints Me

When I see that A.C. Hessenauer has published something, I will always add it to my TBR. What I love most about her writing is the story building and background development of her characters because it keeps me engaged. This audiobook consists of one (male) narrator and I was able to differentiate between the different characters as he read and overall I feel like he portrayed the main character well. While I enjoy reading this story, the narrator was not for me. But, don't let that stop you from giving this a try because your opinion may be different from mine.
