      "Laurelie is a young art student suffering in the aftermath of a sexual assault. Growing progressively more isolated, she transfers from her city university to a small college in rural Vermont, where she retreats into her vivid imagination and her art. Most comfortable in the company of the child for whom she babysits, and most at ease in the woods, Laurelie has shuns any connection with her peers. Then one day while exploring the woods, she and her young charge encounter an injured pregnant bobcat - and the hiker who has been following it for hundreds of miles. In the hiker and his feline companion Laurelie recognizes someone as reclusive and wary as herself." - Back Cover
