Ross River is a town clinging to the outside world at the end of the Yukon's loneliest road. It is also the hiding place of Miles McEwan, the town's hard-drinking, fist-fighting fire chief. But the slow burn of Miles' self-imposed exile is about to explode. As a hunting party tracking one of the last giant grizzlies confronts a different, more chilling enemy and an inferno ignited by human hands races toward the town, Miles embarks on a desperate rescue mission-not only for the life of his daughter but for his own salvation. Andrew Pyper returns to the landscape of the last true wilderness in this blockbuster work of storytelling, a menacing psychological thriller that also explores what binds us to conscience, family and the natural world.
