Book Description
Gros Morne, Newfoundland. Outfitter Jack Crandall’s world falls apart when his son is killed by a bear during a hunt organized for some wealthy Americans. Grief turns to despair when he finds that his son’s death was the bear’s revenge for an illegal cub kill by one of the hunters, Rick Preston. Jack finds that, as organizer, he must take the rap for Preston’s crime.
Fined and banned from organizing hunts, Jack seeks solace in the nature he loves, befriending and training a young cub, Starlight. In Starlight, Jack finds both companionship and an opportunity for revenge against those who have caused his downfall.
Through his new job as assistant to the mysterious funeral director, Norm, Jack finds a macabre way of weaning Gros Morne bears off human flesh so that what happened to his son need never again happen to an innocent man. But in interfering with nature, Jack makes himself a prime suspect in the shocking rise of bear attacks that are claiming lives in record number in Gros Morne. The escalating attacks have investigators baffled, but they are convinced that behind the mystery there lies a human agent…
