A highly acclaimed collection of short stories set in the great outdoors of New England, by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of ‘The Shipping News’ and ‘Brokeback Mountain’.Just outside town, beyond the drugstore and the diner, there's another world – a wilderness – waiting to be explored. On the high, wooded hillsides there are deer to be stalked; far upriver there are quiet pools of trout, and grouse to be shot and traplines to be laid for fur. In the far-flung settlements of New England, life revolves around hunting.Whether they are yuppies from the town who think that country life is improving or natives who know all too well that it isn't, the men and women of these stories are all hunting for something better – though getting by at all is hard enough. These are men and women who live, love and lose; men and women who fall apart and who pick up the pieces, who dream useless dreams and go on dreaming whatever the disappointments.Tough and tender and irresistibly humorous, this unforgettable book takes its reader on a trail through the great outdoors to the innermost places of the heart.

When the line between crime and justice blurs… Her trust in her protectors shattered, Taylor Jones strikes out on her own to find out why someone powerful enough to circumvent the Witness Security Programme wants her dead. She was almost enjoying her quiet new life with a nice, normal guy courtesy of a new identity.Then her next-door neighbour turned up dead, a stray bullet barely missed her, and a former FBI agent knew she was right in the line of fire. Soon Taylor discovers a chilling connection between the South American cocaine trade, terrorism and a secretive cabal that began with the fall of Nazi Germany…whose influence reaches all the way to the White House. But even more frightening, she suspects her nice, normal guy may be at the centre of it all…A rare and potent mixture of adventure, mystery and passion that shouldn’t be missed.
