A wildlife biologist's shocking death contributes to chilling discoveries in Christine Carbo's haunting and engaging new crime novel set in the wilds of Glacier National Park.

But Paul "Wolfie" Sedgewick's fatal show up from the sheer cliffs near Going-to-the-Sun Street is incomprehensible. Wolfie was an experienced and respectable wildlife biologist who knew all too well the perils that Glacier's treacherous landscape presents - and how to prevent them. The situation, so near to home, has frayed area employee feelings. Yet quiet and methodical lead investigator Monty senses in his gut that something isn't right. So when whispers of irresponsibility or suicide emerge, tarnishing Wolfie's reputation, Monty dedicates himself to uncovering the truth - with regard to the man's family also to fulfill his own consistent sense of unease. Monty discovers that Wolfie's zealous studies of Glacier's inexplicable, embattled wolverine human population, so vital to park ecology, possessed met level of resistance, both local and national. To muddy the waters further, a wilderness center for rehabilitating stressed teens - the one that Monty's older brother went to - may have a troubling connection to the case. As Monty delves further into a study that should go deeper than he ever truly imagined, he wrestles with the demons of his past, which lead back again to tough betrayals he thought he'd buried long ago. And then another body is found.
