Description
When Jade Hunter goes missing in the Alaskan wilderness, everyone is shocked. She was scheduled to speak at an academic symposium but never turned up. What was Jade really doing in Alaska?
Blood is found in the woods and suspicion immediately falls on the reclusive survivalist Ursula Smith. She is swiftly arrested and convicted of Jade's murder - even though a body has not been found.
Several years later, Jade's doctoral thesis leaks online, fuelling rumour and conspiracy over the true nature of her disappearance, leading investigative journalist Carla Young to dig through Jade's life and discover what did happen to Jade Hunter.

Person
Gemma Fairclough is a writer living in Manchester. She has a BA (Hons) in English Literature and a Master's in Contemporary Literature and Culture from the University of Manchester. She recently completed the Write Like a Grrrl programme and formed a writing group with peers from the course. A range of unsettling influences, including horror films, surrealist art, and folklore inspire her writing, which frequently centres upon experiences of alienation, grief, and aberrant desire. You can read a sample of her short fiction online: 'Please Make Sure You Take All Your Personal Belongings With You' (Dear Damsels), a story about an office worker with a fetish for automated female voices and 'Elemental' (Mookychick), a story about witchcraft and the power of belief.
