When the governor of Wyoming gives Joe Pickett the thankless task of
taking a tech baron on an elk hunting trip, Joe reluctantly treks into
the wilderness with his high-profile charge. But as they venture into
the woods, a man-hunter is hot on their heels, driven by a desire for
revenge. Finding himself without a weapon, a horse, or a way to
communicate, Joe must rely on his wits and his knowledge of the outdoors
to protect himself and his companion.
Meanwhile, Joe's closest friend, Nate Romanowski, and his own daughter
Sheridan learn of the threat to Joe's life and follow him into the
woods. In a stunning final showdown, the three of them come up against
the worst that nature--and man--have to offer.
