A man sneaks onto his neighbor's property, hunting out of season to feed his extended family, and shoots what he thinks is a wild boar. He soon realizes poaching and trespassing are not the most serious crimes he has committed when the boar turns out to be human.

This book was the perfect book at the perfect time for me. I loved the pace- ominous and waiting- without being overly gruesome. I also loved that "the woods" and backwoods life were almost like a character itself. I definitely look forward to reading more from this author.
