After Marty Preston worked so hard to earn the dog Shiloh, he had hoped
that his troubles with Judd Travers were over. He could not rescue all
the dogs that Judd mistreated, but since shiloh was the one who ran away
and came to him, Shiloh was the one he loved.
Judd, however, has other problems. Anyone who cheats and swears and lies
and kicks his dogs has troubles inside himself, and when the man starts
drinking, Marty realizes that Shiloh is in danger once again. As hunting
season approaches and Judd begins hunting on their land, the Prestons
know that something is bound to happen.
They're right. Marty does the only thing he can think of to do, and
discovers just how deep a hurt can go and how long it takes to heal.
