Keith Kovacs is an ambitious investment advisor looking to build his own wealth at any cost. That ambition has now enticed him on an autumn wilderness hunting trip with his newest lover's billionaire industrialist father and her slippery ex-husband.

Does it matter that the industrialist's wife was once a clandestine lover, or that his daughter is his fierce preoccupation? Kovacs doesn't think so. He's not even suspicious of the experienced game hunter and the mysteriously cold guide hired to accompany the group into the remote Omenica Range in British Columbia's ruggedly wild interior. Before long, Kovacs--who has only limited survival skills learned in childhood and even less concern for anyone but himself--begins to realize he may be the prey they're hunting.

Add a pack of escaped domesticated dogs, growing hungrier and wilder as they embrace real and dangerous freedom in the Rocky Mountains. As the danger escalates, Kovacs finds a reason to turn and face his enemies.
