About This Book

A moonlit frontier setting introduces a terrifying, wolf-shaped creature that kills a Native warrior, establishing a supernatural menace in the wilderness. Subsequent chapters follow rival hunters and other frontier figures whose lives intersect around marked trees, sudden rifle shots, and the hunt for game, while the wolflike being drives suspense and pursuit through forests and river valleys. The narrative mixes adventure and speculative horror amid rugged landscapes, examining fear, survival, and the blurred boundary between human and bestial as characters confront both ordinary dangers and an uncanny predator that unsettles the community.
