Description: On the edge of the Adirondack wilderness, survival is a way of life for the Hazen family.

Review Quotes: "Acompelling first novel about love and rivalry in the adirondacks builds toward a shattering conclusion." --People
"Like some modern-day version of a Greek tragedy . . . a chorus of narrators . . . moves this story . . . slowly and beautifully [toward] an indelible disaster. . . . This is, after all, a story about a man forced to expand his moral imagination, and in the end it inspires the same sympathy from us." --Washington Post Book World "A beautifully drawn, tragic novel about fathers and sons--and the bonds of community." --Atlanta Journal Constitution
