It''s summer in Alaska, and the light surrounding the shipping container-turned-storage shed where Liv Russo is being held prisoner is fuzzy and grey. Around her is thick forest and jagged mountains. In front of her, across a clearing, is a low-slung cabin with a single window that spills a wash of yellow light onto bare ground.

Illuminated in that light is the father of her child, a man she once loved. A man who is now her jailer. Liv vows to do anything to escape. Carrying her own secrets and a fierce need to protect her young son, Liv must navigate a new world where extreme weather, starvation, and dangerous wildlife are not the only threats she faces.

With winter''s arrival imminent, she knows she must reckon with her past and the choices that brought her to the unforgiving Alaskan landscape if she is ever going to make it out alive. A story of survival in the wilds of Alaska, The Beautiful and the Wild explores the question of whether we can ever truly know the person we love.. or ourselves.
