Max, a former big-city reporter now writing for a paper in East Nowhere Maine reporter for a small-town newspaper somewhere in Maine comes across a police investigation of an animal attack. He’s suspicious of Sheriff Murdoch’s claim it was bear. Especially after a second attack claims the lives of a local woman and her dog. Enlisting the help of Harriet, the paper’s photographer he soon has evidence that whatever committed them is most definitely not a bear. And there’s a history of similar attacks dating back to the 1950s. A history that some people want covered up.
