Summary

A remote camera on a large, rugged expanse held by the Land Trust for Wildlife Conservation picks up an image of what could be a mountain caribou. Alex Carter is asked to investigate: mountain caribou went extinct in the contiguous U.S. years ago. She arrives on scene in the Selkirk mountains of northeastern Washington state to learn that loggers and activists are clashing over a swath of old growth forest marked for clearcutting. Then the murdered body of a forest ranger is found strung up in the town's park, and Alex learns a backcountry hiker went missing in the same area the year before. Now she is caught between factions warring for the future of the forest-- and a murderer stalking the dense groves of ancient trees. -- adapted from jacket
