What this book is about
A wealthy landowner is missing, and the entire action of this Clare Fergusson mystery takes place in a single November day in the Adirondack wilderness. Clare and Russ must find the missing woman before nightfall — against a backdrop of competing interests over land development, timber rights, and desperate people. The fourth entry in the series delivers its most compressed and urgent storytelling.
