   Book Review


Boston Globe
Speart tells us why we ought to care about endangered species--and provides a rattling good yarn.


Nevada Barr
Jessica Speart is a revitalizing gust...in a stuffy room.


Pittsburgh Post Gazette
A great read. Speart has created a new genre--the wildlife mystery thriller--and I love them."


Book Description

Agressive and independent, agent Rachel Porter has long been a thorn in the side of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service -- and for her sins, she's been assigned to remote Montana. In this cold, windswept country of private militias and survivalists, grizzlies are being killed at an alarming rate. And while following up on a rumor that someone from the local Blackfeet tribe is responsible, Rachel uncovers an even more terrible truth: Native Americans are mysteriously disappearing as well. In this land that the Unabomber called home, it appears that endangered animals and humans are equally fair game. And the next casualty may well be one gutsy wildlife agent who refuses to let sleeping bears lie.


About the Author
Jessica Speart has been published in The New York Times Magazine, Omni, Travel & Leisure, Audubon, National Wildlife, Mother Jones, Wildlife Conservation, Earth Journal and any other publications. She lives in Easton, Conneticut.
