Bald Mountain srugged shoulders. On the other side of the sparkling stream reared Saddleback, its brown ridge half hidden in fleecy, pinkening clouds, while over all hung the wilderness silence of the great woods a restful peace fulness not broken, but emphasized, by the somber rumble of Lone Pine Falls. A little trout rose viciously at the dropper fly, but the girl merely smiled. Arrogant small fry are accorded scant recognition within the closely guarded bounds of Idyl wild, sprawling like an octopus over its four lake-littered, spruce-clad townships. Hardly had the ripples subsided before the big fish rose again. Cautiously, she dared a few steps along the sandy point, then sent her flies reaching for the disturbed black water at the tail of the pool.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book opens on a young woman navigating the fascinating world of an elite hunting and fishing camp as her life undergoes a quiet revolution. While society tells her to value wealth and status, she finds herself pulled towards a very different way of life when she encounters a man with a vision of a road that will bring progress to a sleepy town. Torn between her loyalty to her upbringing and her growing conviction that there is more to life than luxury, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery that will ultimately pit her against the powerful men who dominate her world. The author delves deeply into the complexities of human nature, the conflict between tradition and progress, and the lengths people will go to protect their interests.
