Publishers Description: Aging baby-boomer Russell Walker wants only to retreat from the world and the shattering death of his beloved wife, into the woods of British Columbia. But the real world won't let him become a hermit.

This involuntary trio may be the only ones who can catch the inhuman butcher before he kills again-if he doesn't catch them first.
