A ghost of caribou : a novel of suspense / Alice Henderson.
When a remote camera on a large, rugged expanse held by the Land Trust for Wildlife Conservation in Washington State picks up a blurry image of what could be a mountain caribou, the organization contacts Alex Carter to investigate. After all, mountain caribou went extinct years ago in the lower forty-eight, and if one has wandered down from Canada, it's monumental. But when Alex arrives on the scene in the Selkirk Mountains, she quickly discovers that finding an elusive caribou on a massive piece of land isn't her only challenge. The nearby townspeople are agitated - loggers and activists clash over a swarth of old-growth forest marked for clear-cutting, the murdered body of a forest ranger is strung up in the town's park, and Alex learns of a backcountry hiker who went missing in the same area the year before. As Alex ventures into the forest in search of the endangered animal, she finds herself in a fight for her life, caught between factions warring for the future of the forest and a murderer stalking the dense groves of ancient trees.
