for the company of animals over humans. Then a neighbor  Big Foot  turns up dead. Soon other
bodies are discovered  in increasingly strange circumstances. As suspicions mount  Janina
inserts herself into the investigation  certain that she knows whodunit. If only anyone would
pay her mind . . . A deeply satisfying thriller cum fairy tale  Drive Your Plow over the Bones

justice and tradition  autonomy and fate. Whom do we deem sane? it asks. Who is worthy of a
voice?
