Sheriff Martha Ettinger employs her fiancé, sometimes-detective Sean Stranahan, to put a name to the gnawed bones comprising all that is left of the body. The woman's is the first of several deaths that Sean suspects are not as easily explained as they appear. . As a reign of terror grips the Madison Valley, blood in the tracks will lead him from the river below to the snow-covered ridge tops, as Sean finds himself on his most adventurous and dangerous quest yet. For as he comes closer to unearthing the secret shared by the dead and missing, the tracks he is following will turn, and the hunter becomes the hunted.\u003cb\u003ePraise for Keith McCafferty and the Sean Stranahan mystery series\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e“Keith McCafferty gets the West just right... an impressive writer.” —\u003cb\u003eMargaret Coel\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003ebestselling author of\u003ci\u003e The Man Who Fell From the Sky\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eWinter’s Child\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\"If you’re not reading Keith McCafferty because you don’t fly fish or because you don’t like mysteries or westerns, you need to get started because he’s just flat-out terrific.\" —\u003cb\u003eCraig Johnson\u003c\/b\u003e, author of the Walt Longmire novels, the basis for the Netflix drama \u003ci\u003eLongmire\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Like Brad Smith and Elmore Leonard, McCafferty does a marvelous job of manipulating mood… A must for Craig Johnson and C.J.
