Wild Man - Charles, Alexander

. .

Résumé :

The legend lives!

A thrilling page turner, Wild Man chronicles the trials and tribulations of nineteen-year-old fur trapper, Gabe Bauman, through the pristine, untouched wilderness of the northern Rocky Mountains. Seemingly tranquil settings transform into scenes of horror in this story of revenge, greed, brotherhood, love, and unknown creatures. It follows a young man's quest for adventure that morphs into a nightmare of bloodlust and carnage. Who or what is stalking the camp at night? Rivals become allies as the legendary beast of Indian lore rampages its way out of fireside stories and into a rage-filled reality. An unlikely friendship is born of the need for sheer survival, matching wits against enemies on every side. Something lurks in the shadows. It moves silently on the edge of perception-beyond the firelight, just inside the forest's veil of darkness. Trespassers have dared enter its mountain domain-the home of the legend known by the native people as the Wild Man. Who will live and who will die?
