Crossing the Divide: The Divide Saga

By JP Upton

A dream vacation. A terrifying crash. A desperate fight for survival.

James, Claire, and Emily Carter never imagined their long-awaited family getaway would turn into a waking nightmare. But when their plane plummets from the sky, leaving them stranded in a hostile and unfamiliar land, they quickly realize survival is only the beginning of their battle. Trapped deep within North Korea-one of the most secretive and dangerous nations on Earth-James, Claire, and their eight-year-old daughter, Emily, must stay one step ahead of the ruthless soldiers hunting them.

With no map, no supplies, and no allies, the Carters face impossible odds. The brutal landscape is as unforgiving as the enemy closing in, and every step toward the border brings new dangers. But when a mysterious stranger emerges from the shadows, offering a dangerous path to freedom, they must make an impossible choice-trust an unknown guide or risk capture, imprisonment, or worse.

As time runs out and the walls close in, the Carters will have to summon every ounce of courage, resilience, and love they possess to escape a country that doesn't let anyone leave alive.

A pulse-pounding thriller of survival, sacrifice, and the unbreakable bonds of family, Down will leave you breathless until the final, heart-stopping moment.
