A thrilling novel from the world's favourite storyteller, Danielle Steel. A small community is tested when their children go missing while exploring a dangerous local peak - forcing them to band together during the crisis. Fishtail, Montana, is home to Anne and Pitt Pollock, local royalty, high school sweethearts and owners of the successful Pollock ranch. The sprawling foothills of the Beartooth Mountains surround the town, overlooking the Pollocks' property and the nearby ranch belonging to Bill and Pattie Brown. The two couples have known each other since childhood. Their sons Peter Pollock and Matt Brown are the best of friends. When they and two other local kids meet Juliet Marshall, new to town after her parents' bitter divorce, the five of them are soon inseparable, spending their summer days swimming, horseback-riding, hiking and fishing. But one August afternoon, their latest adventure takes a dangerous turn - when they find themselves trapped on Granite Peak. Quickly, it escalates into a battle for survival. Fear reverberates through the town, as their parents grow ever more desperate to hear word that their children have been found. They must place their own trials aside amid a massive search-and-rescue operation. As they come to lean on one another for support, a media frenzy ensues, heightening tensions and testing some already fragile relationships. In the aftermath of this one fateful event, devastating secrets are revealed, new love appears on the horizon, and families are forced to reconsider what they once held dear.

The Challenge by Danielle Steel is an engaging story. Fishtail, Montana is a small town that is perfect for those who enjoy the outdoors and a laidback lifestyle. There is horseback riding, swimming, hiking, rock climbing, and so much more. There are friendly neighbors who watch out for each other. In the first couple of chapters, we get to meet the various characters. There are adults and teenagers as well as a six-year-old (it will take time to keep the characters straight). I thought the characters were realistic and relatable. I enjoyed the beautiful descriptions of Montana. I like Danielle Steel�s engaging writing style. She draws the reader into the story and keeps them hooked. The Challenge is about more than seven kids getting stuck on Granite Peak. It is a story about friendships, family, loss, heartache, and love. We get to see how the kids being lost on the mountain impacts the families and the aftermath. The time the kids were lost on the mountain affected each person differently. I found the second half of the book is more compelling than the first. I really wish the author had included an epilogue (say a year after the book ended). The Challenge is a book that captures your full attention, so you are unaware of what is going on around you (and you get annoyed when someone interrupts you). Life is full of challenges. Some of them are small and other are life threatening. In this book, we get to see how the characters react to a large challenge. Each decision we make takes us down a different path. Our choices affect others in our lives. The story does contain foul language and intimate relations (just to let you know). I enjoyed The Challenge, and I was sorry when I finished it. It was interesting to see how each family�s story turned out. The Challenge is a compelling tale with firm friends, trail troubles, a big bear, a serious search and rescue, parent disputes, a troubled teen, and rocky relationships.
