Guarded 1. Camp Refuge

If you are into crime drama ,mystery and suspense then you have come to the perfect place.This beats any police drama you may have seen at the movies or on TV hands down.

I won't  say any details about the story for fear of giving away too much as the other reviews covered it well.What I will say is think of any great suspense writer and this author will compare favorably to him/her.The author has said this was his first attempt at this genre which makes my statement in the previous sentence even that much more incredible

Corbin has found a nice cabin in the Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho where he can remain off the grid and hidden.  His secret past means he can trust no one as he tries to tries to build a new life.  He struggles in this new and unfamiliar environment.  His past will not let him go and looms over him all the time.  This is a suspenseful adventure filled with mysteries that will have you on the edge as Corbin finds love, danger, and intrigue.  The story is compelling, smoldering and well paced. A great read!

Awesome story… thanks for writing it…

I enjoyed every chapter of this storry.

Q

Excellent read (2nd time around). So I knew what happened in general, but had forgotten so many details!

Now to dive into the rest of the Camp Refuge stories!

I enjoyed reading this story🙂

Twists and turns in plot and an unexpected conclusion.

I'm looking forward to seeing how the story unfolds in the rest of the series.

Well worth a read if you enjoy this genre.

Thoroughly enjoyable and satisfying read! 

Corbin and Paul are men of courage and integrity. These are folks you would like to count among your friends. This is a fast paced tale that smolders and slowly builds into an inferno of action and intrigue. It is so well written you feel like the other shoe will drop in the next paragraph if not then surely next chapter. 

There are plot twists that are more convoluted than any within "Game of Thrones".

You will see a tenuous relationship bud into a profound and lifelong love. You will see that love tested to its limits... If you enjoy edge of the seat excitement...  Then you will most definitely enjoy this tale.

Be forewarned!

If you like to think you can see the end, long before others, whether reading a story or watching a movie... be prepared to be somewhat humbled when it all comes down to that "AHAH!" moment. The pieces are scattered throughout the story and are all brought together so smoothly you will wonder why you hadn't figured it out sooner. Even after you relax and begin to think all is well... there are still surprises.

Strong character development, well-plotted storyline, enough "spice" for those who like that (but not so much as to bore those who don't), plenty of surprises, and excellent editing.  

Well worth reading.

Ok, I am lousy at writing reviews but I agree with Droughtquake, I used a lot of tissues.

I thought I knew where it was heading, but buggar my days, I missed the mark each time.

A very good read which tends to get you to follow  a train of thought but evolves into another. Love the intrigue, implied suspense.

Taught me some Italiano

I have finished reading this magnificent story for a second time and it was as amazing this time as the last.

I have 'Camp Refuge' and am rereading it as well.  Your stories are a true literary work of Shakespearean proportions and I truly hate that you end them so abruptly.  Many more chapters could be written in each story.

Wayne Gray is a gifted writer.  In this story, he provides intrigue, mystery, and finding oneself with the gift of finding a home complete with relationships which form a "family".  Great read!!!

great written story about Corbin and Paul, with an interesting plot.

it catches you into binge reading it.

Corbin is a man with a mysterious past who moves from the big city to a very small town in rural Idaho. He buys a house, paying all cash. These two things alone make him a figure of much speculation by the townsfolk.

Throughout the story Corbin meets other residents and begins to establish roots. But his secret history catches up with him with frightening and potentially deadly results. Corbin is unsure who his friends and allies are.

A wonderful blend of love and suspense that will, at times, make you reach for the tissues, and at other times, keep you on the edge of your seat!

Lots of twists and turns, and an unexpected, yet satisfying end. Worth reading!

This is the fantastic story about Corbin who moves to Idaho, with a past that he’s trying to forget. He meets Paul the local firemen. We follow these two guys as the mystery of Corbin’s past comes back to haunt him. The mystery is well paced with clues throughout. With a fantastic ending.

Highly recommend this as a fantastic read.

Corbin and Paul are two guys you will enjoy getting to know. They are interesting and fully developed characters. Their story takes place in rural Idaho as Corbin comes there to start over. He is hoping for quiet anonymity in this small town, but he is wrong. This mystery is well paced. The author reveals clues slowly, allowing tension to grow. I thoroughly enjoyed this story, and I highly recommend it!
