When Ren discovers his friend Hilly, a biologist and wolf expert, nearly dead in the steel jaws of a wolf trap, he hopes it's just an accident, but the small red ribbon tied to the stake makes him fairly certain that it wasn't. What begins as an inquiry into a known poacher soon opens into the discovery of a local group of ranchers who have formed an alliance at odds with both the park and with Ren's responsibility to protect it." -- Publisher. 20230824.
