Description

At a young age in the Maine woods, Diana Jackman learned to move freely in the wilderness, to sense a world invisible to most. A natural tracker from a long line of hunters, she has been taught by betrayal and loss to guard her feelings behind a wall of half truths and silence. It has cost her many things: her family, her happiness, her peace. And it has brought her to a beautiful, frozen place of magic... and death.

Eight hunters have gathered on a vast, isolated estate in northern British Columbia, to track record book whitetail deer. Diana Jackman is among them, hoping to find the self she has somehow lost.

But someone else is in the woods - an insane and violent force of nature.

One by one, the hunters are stalked and murdered. The killer is quick, relentless, frightening efficient. And he knows his quarry: what they think, what they feel ... what they fear. The madman has a passion and a purpose. And he will not rest until he achieves his one great goal: to purify the hunt by killing them all.

To survive, Diana will have to face her past, resurrect skills she learned as a child and set out alone to hunt the hunter.
