For Vietnam veteran turned wildlife ranger Nick Drake, the war at home proves just as deadly.
Harney County, Oregon, 1968: Nick Drake has a chest full of medals and enough demons to fill a duffel bag. He's been trained to kill but was never retrained to rejoin society. Drake flees to the lonesome high desert in search of redemption and takes a job patrolling wildlife refuges where the only conflicts are keeping out stray cows and ticketing poachers. But then he stumbles across a girl's body ritually placed in a gully.
Her murder is only the beginning, and Drake must face humanity's heart of darkness once again if he's to stop a killer from turning even more gullies into graves.

Great story poorly narrated

This is the most compelling book I’ve read in ages, but I admit it is partly due to the fact that it mirrored so much of my own story as a teenage girl in 1968 frequently hitchhiking through Oregon on my way to and from San Francisco & Seattle. I too had close calls with predators, stayed at an ashram, knew the same movies, books and song lyrics as Nick Drake, and had male friends wounded spiritually by their experience in Vietnam.
The story would be exciting to those readers who do not share the era, though, as it is so gripping and well written. I intend to read more of this author.
Wow, what a find!

Disappointed

Shortly after beginning his new job Nick comes across the body of a young woman partially buried. Only days later another body is found. Other young people are going missing but is it foul play or are they draft dodgers? Worse yet, maybe a serial killer is at work in this remote neck of the woods.
Because of the time period there is no technology, there are radios and landlines. Star Trek was a new TV series and the BEATLES had just released their WHITE ALBUM.
There are some very likable and believable characters. The setting is vividly described and the plot is plausible.
Steve Marvel does an excellent job narrating.
