A pack of wolves makes a sudden, bloody return to the sleepy Rocky Mountain ranching town of Hope, Montana, where a century ago they were slaughtered in their thousands. Now shielded by law as an endangered species, they reawake an ancient hatred that will tear apart a family and ultimately the whole community. This is a story of Helen Ross, a twenty-nine-year-old biologist sent alone into this hostile place to protect the wolves from those who seek to destroy them. It tells of her struggle for self-esteem, survival, and charts her dangerous love affair with the eighteen-year-old son of her most powerful opponent, brutal and charismatic rancher Buck Calder(We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).

Review
Using the controversial reintroduction of wolves into the American West as its catalyst, Evans pits a powerful Montana rancher against a struggling wolf pack, the wildlife agents mandated to protect the animals and, ultimately, recalcitrant members of his own family. "Luke could taste blood starting, salty and metallic, inside his mouth. He stared at his father, who stood glaring at him, his massive chest heaving and his neck flushed with anger."
Evans has loaded the characters with haunting secrets and hidden agendas, creating a deeply textured story of compelling plot lines that form a circle of love, hate, trust, and suspicion. The use of music to elevate the already heightened drama is perhaps overdone, but Lang's narration is quite good, keeping pace with a story that moves. (Running time: 5.5 hours, four cassettes) --George Laney
