Now I guard a rift between worlds that leaks hungry things.When a man named Bear lumbers into my one-stoplight Rocky Mountain town and drags me into the job, Tamarack Falls and all its people become my responsibility.Lowe Alexander. Responsibility. Most people around here would tell you those words got no business being thrown together.Bear says he has his reasons for drafting me to be a caretaker of The Scar. He's teaching me things about myself. My heritage. About why I’ve always been good at running, why my eyes tend to glow yellow in the darkest part of the night.Now I spend my days chasing man-eating lizards, bargaining with creepy tree spirits, and tracking down missing persons. The hours are terrible, the pay even worse, and the job sites are always hazardous.When an old crush asks me to help her Search and Rescue team track down a missing hunter, I smell blood. A lot of it. But it's the lingering scent of one of The Banished that's put my head on swivels. For they are always angry. Always hungry.And now one of them is on our trail.***“Long before the Old One created human beings, our world was populated with the Animal People.
