Publisher's summary

Kaitlin Maverick has become a bored housewife. After leaving a thriving life in Toronto to accompany her husband, Paul Maverick, on his professional pursuits in the scenic yet slower-paced life of Stavanger, Norway, Kaitlin's newlywed bliss subsides faster than she would have thought.

Lacking stimulation and purpose, Kaitlin impulsively gravitates towards the thrills that ensue the moment she runs into mysterious Finn Du Feu and his peculiar group of friends working and living in the Scandinavian woods. What begins as self-exploration through enticing experiences soon turns into a sinister web of lies - and otherworldliness. Kaitlin spirals down wicked paths, as mystifying encounters make her question everything and everyone.

Who are these forest beings that allure so much yet reveal so little? Why is Paul so affected by the news of a murdered young woman on TV? What will happen when those closest to Kaitlin discover the true nature of her contact with The Group? Or when she discovers the true nature of herself?

As Kaitlin embarks on a quest to seize questionable opportunities, she soon understands the ripple-effect of consequences that could either destroy or catalyze her world as she knows it.

A mystery thriller with an interesting plot

I like thrillers, mysteries
I bought The Catalyst out of curiosity thinking it may be a mystery novel.
It did not disappoint. I basically read the book in one sitting. Well written with a very interesting subject matter about the supernatural.
Author successfully included several sites from Norway to blend in with the story; one felt you were there.
I highly recommend this book
