Fremont on his expedition to find a route through the Sangre de Cristo and San Juan mountains in the middle of winter.

It was there, no matter how jaded all the years of law-enforcement had made her. FEAR-The teeth clinching, make-you-more-than-a-little-nauseous kind of fear-gnawing at her insides, making her anxious and uneasy. She didn't like it, but it was there, and had been there, since the discovery of the first, pulverized victim. Sanchez and her partner had gone up against some of east Tennessee's most prolific killers and she'd never so much as flinched. But this was different. No matter how hard she tried to convince herself that she was just being foolish, she couldn't shake the feeling that something very bad was about to happen.

Life often takes you on a much longer trail before you reach the goal you were destined for, and this circuitous route usually has valuable life lessons. These are the lessons that littered the path of the lives of Clancy and Caleb as they fled from the sorrow of the mountains and searched for answers in all the wrong places. Thinking the big city would provide refuge and salve for painful memories, they learned where ever they went there were new lessons to learn and memories to be made. With both having a love for the mountains and the often solitary lifestyle, the pull of the city would not readily release its grip but they would have to chart their own course.

Yet the new frontier fought back against anyone that sought to leave their mark on the virgin territory claimed by the wild animals and the Native Americans. But destiny would have a hand and that hand had been dealt. What would be the outcome of this game of life?
