On Heaven's Hill

Beschreibung

"A novel told from three alternating perspectives-a former trapper trying to care for his son with muscular dystrophy; a young girl who wishes for her father to be rid of his PTSD from the war; and a wolf fighting for his and his pack's survival. Set in a small Alaskan town, the residents fight for the remote wilds they call home when plans for a building development threatens to upend the peace"--
