30 to 50 Feral Hogs

The road to perdition is paved with feral hogs. 

At least, that''s what Parker Eriksen expected when she joined the feral hog hunts of Hekla Lake. She would bury herself in the lonely mountain town, and dole out self-punishment to atone for her disastrous past by bloodying her knuckles against the hides of America''s most dangerous invasive species. Maybe drink herself to death while she was at it, before she had to make any decisions about her future. 

But when an unseasonable snow storm cuts the town off from the world, the feral hogs start fighting back-and they aren''t pulling punches. If she wants to survive, Parker will have to revive the parts of herself she''s entombed, and confront more than a simple be-tusked ecological threat. She''ll need to confront *herself*, and what it means to stop hiding and start fighting.
