- Summary:
- Annie Heston leaves an abusive relationship and relocates to a small mountain town in the Pacific Northwest to work as a game warden. As she warns residents about a cougar sighting, Annie encounters resistance from members of the close-knit community but forms a connection with Daniel Barela, a reclusive local carpenter. When a young woman is found dead near Daniel's property, Annie assists the local sheriff in the investigation. Drawing on her training and knowledge of the wilderness, Annie becomes increasingly involved in uncovering the truth behind the crime. The novel combines a suspenseful investigation with an examination of isolation, trust, and community dynamics.
