Track of the Cat

The memory of violence and loss drove Anna Pigeon from the city to seek peace in the South western wilderness. Now a ranger in America's national parks, Anna is at one with nature and its serene, unspoiled majesty. But the brutal death of a fellow ranger in the remote West Texas backcountry - presumably by mountain lion attack-looks suspiciously like murder to Anna. And her unauthorized investigation into the tragedy is placing her squarely in harm's way. For a trail with few leads winds through dangerous territory - where Anna must confront the dark side of the desert ... and the human heart.Nevada Barr is the author of 'Track of the Cat', published 1993 under ISBN 9780399138249 and ISBN 0399138242.
