A young murder suspect flees across the snowy wilderness. Tracking him is what passes for the law in this frontier land: trappers, sheriffs, traders and the suspect's own mother, desperate to clear his name. As the party pushes further from civilisation, hidden purposes and old obsessions are revealed. One is seeking long-lost daughters; another a fortune in stolen furs; yet another is chasing rumours of a lost Native American culture. But where survival depends on cooperation, their fragile truce cannot afford to be broken, nor their overriding purpose - to find justice for a murdered man - forgotten.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Tenderness of Wolves \u003c\/i\u003eis a must-read historical epic, weaving adventure, suspense and humour into an exhilarating thriller, a panoramic romance and ultimately, one of the books of the last ten years.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Quercus Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47153055039728,"sku":"9781847248954","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781847248954_p0.jpg?v=1763747899","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781847248954","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
