The Herd

Beschreibung

Culture, science, and commerce collide when twin white buffalo calves are born on a First Nations ranch in Saskatchewan. Are they the sign of the prophecy or the results of genetic manipulation? As crowds of pilgrims gather to witness what they hope is a miracle in action, the reserve's veterinarian, Dr. Vanessa Brokenhorn, must do all that she can to protect her research and the twin calves.
