THE AUTHOR’S FAVORITE EXCERPT:
“Suddenly, something moved up ahead. There, less than 10 feet away from Austin, stood a cougar. Its teeth were slightly bared, and its back legs hunched, ready to spring into action. The wild cat was hunting the boy. Austin had no time to move out of the way or outsmart the predator. He simply stood rooted to the ground. It was only a few seconds as they watched each other, and then the cougar leaped forward, claws raking the air.”
