From the award-winning author of The Dig and Cove, a collection of viscerally powerful short stories in which man is pitted against nature, against circumstance, and against himself.
A man heads into the snow to hunt down the bear that has been taking stock from farms in the valley. A father tries to make something go right for the son he no longer lives with. A partner is called to help when a cow's labor goes horribly wrong. A fierce storm threatens to bring down a tree on powerlines over a family's home.
Fear, vulnerability, tension and resolve course through these arresting and indelible stories from one of the finest British writers at work today.
