‘Thrilling… Ms. Barr has a naturalist’s eye for detail and an environmentalist’s fury at the destruction of the wilderness’ – New York Times Book Review

Patrolling the remote West Texas backcountry, Anna’s first job as a national park ranger is marred by violence she thought she had left behind: the brutal death of a fellow ranger. When the cause of death is chalked up to a mountain lion attack, Anna’s rage knows no bounds. It’s up to her to save the protected cats from the politics and prejudices of the locals – and prove the kill was the work of a species far less rare…

What readers are saying about Track of the Cat:

‘Nevada Barr has a fabulous way of writing and her descriptions of the beautiful landscapes and natural beauty of these parks is just wonderful

‘Full of nature and heat, [this book is] excellently written to involve us in the story’

Five stars
