About the Book
How can you flee from an unseen enemy? Haven Ellingsen enrolled in Life Ventures Therapy Camp in the Cascade Mountains to help her heal from horrible memories of her mother’s violent death at the hands of an armed robber. But now, a greater fear dogs her steps. The rustle of leaves or the snap of a twig could be nothing, or it might signal the presence of the watcher, the phantom who stalks her.
It seems like a cruel trick from God to throw Haven into another dangerous situation only a year after her mom’s murder. He hides near her tent and listens to the girl talk with the counselor. Mostly she talks about her father. She’s unhappy, and he can’t stand to listen and do nothing about it. He needs to rescue her. To make sure she doesn’t ever go back to the man. His own father was the cause of his mother’s death. And Ruth’s. That won’t happen again. Not with this girl.
When the time is right, he’ll take her away to his hidden cabin where she’ll be safe. And he will feel peace for the first time in years. Can one month of survival training equip a girl to face all that the rugged wilderness, and a madman, can dish out?

My Two Cents
The first book of “The Hunted” series is great!
This was the first of Dena Netherton’s books that I read. I love her writing style. I was privileged to receive an advance copy of “Haven’s Flight.”
Once I began reading this book, I did not want to put it down! From the Prologue to the Epilogue, Dena has woven together a gripping story that draws you into the lives of the characters in such a way that you experience a myriad of emotions: sadness, happiness, shock, expectation, anger, contentment, fear, peace, pain, relief, disgust, and admiration.
What a great beginning book for this series! I couldn’t wait to read the second book!
If you love Christian Romantic Suspense, you will love this book! WARNING: Once you start reading you will NOT want to put it down!

About the Author
Dena Netherton was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area. Living in a musical family, She was blessed to study with great piano and voice teachers and given many opportunities to perform both in church settings and professional secular venues.
Although Dena wrestled with whether to study music or to study writing, her relatives counseled her to “live life first, then write about it.” Looking back, she’s glad she studied music, and taught and performed music first until all her three children were grown and out of the house. There’s nothing that compares with a life of loving a husband and children, pouring ones life into helping little hands and voices sing praises to their Heavenly Father, linking arms and “doing life together,” as her husband likes to say.
Now a retired teacher, she enjoys sitting in her office and imagining her literary characters–usually the musical ones– jumping up and down, doing pillow fights, while squealing, “Me! Write about me next!”
Recently, a new adventure has called Dena and her husband, Bruce, from the Colorado Rockies to the wet and misty forests along the San Juan Islands in Washington state. So don’t be surprised if some of the towns in her newer novels bear some resemblance to actual towns around Seattle.
Dena’s biggest prayer as a writer is that God speaks a word of comfort or encouragement to you through her words. And her goal is that her stories are compelling enough to keep you up all night.
