Books with author Reuben Turner

Connor Pitts is an ex-scout for a good reason. He's quit camping. Stopped hiking. Given up on fire-making and shelter-building. No matter how much he used to love stuff like that, he doesn't do them anymore. Not after what happened.All that changes, though, when an old friend starts begging him for help. She's planning a secret quest into a wilderness she knows nothing about, and unlike the games they used to play behind his house as little kids, it’s not for fun.In fact, it’s a matter of life and death...Sam’s younger brother is sick. Really sick. And despite her parents’ efforts to keep her in the dark, she refuses to sit by and do nothing. That’s why, after hearing about a secret place that might be able to heal him, she has to give it a shot. It's a place they'll have to venture deep into the Arizona desert to find—a brutal terrain filled with dangers unlike any they’ve ever faced. Rattlesnakes. Flash floods. Not to mention the grueling heat and that constant, sawdust-in-your-throat thirst that accompanies it. To have any chance of making it there, Connor will have to rely on every survival skill he's ever learned. Even the one he swore he’d never try again.
