Rice Moore came to the Appalachian wilderness to disappear. But the forest has its own predators.
Running from a deadly cartel, Rice takes refuge as a caretaker on a remote Virginian preserve. His days are filled with tracking wildlife and repairing cabins—until the quiet is shattered by the brutal killing of a bear.
When more bears turn up dead, Rice’s obsession with catching the poachers puts him squarely in the locals’ crosshairs—and risks exposing him to the enemies he fled.
Partnering with a fierce scientist determined to protect the preserve, Rice sets a trap. But in these woods, the line between hunter and hunted is razor thin.
Winner of the Edgar Award, Bearskin is a haunting, slow-burn thriller where the wilderness is as dangerous as the past you can’t escape.
