As a natural tracker from the line of shamans, hunters, and healers- now an environmental software writer, a wife and a mother, betrayals and loss have taught her a lesson to always guard her feelings behind a wall of half silence and truths. Life has taught her many lessons, her family, her happiness, her peace and it has brought her to a picturesque, frozen place of death and magic.

Eight experienced hunters have gathered widely on a vast and isolated estate in British Columbia to hunt down a whitetail deer at the snow-covered confluence of Dream and Sticks rivers. Diana is among them- drawn by the hunt and the power of her father’s people.

However someone else is closely watching the hunters- a crazy and violent force of nature, hiding in the blinding whiteness of the snow, and the hunters themselves have become the hunted.
