Found in the Woods (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781641113052)

In this, her eagerly awaited third novel, Glory Ralston takes us even deeper into the redwood forests of far-northern California. Found in the Woods is the fascinating and poignant story of how a series of up-close photographs of a wild black bear-seemingly impossible to capture-came to be.

Recently and abruptly widowed, her nest empty, Susan Campton is at a loss as to what to do with her life. With Chance, her black Labrador, she wanders the woods near her home, absorbed in memories from her past, until suddenly one day a massive black bear charges across the trail in front of her. This heart-stopping moment, and the ensuing events and decisions, will change Susan's life in ways she never imagined possible.

Ralston takes the reader on a journey into the core of timber company lands as Susan strives to gain a wild bear's trust and to capture his image on film. Meanwhile, the bear is leery and watchful. This is his territory, and he will be the one who determines the outcome of their encounter.

Told with the same clarity and understanding of an area and a way of life that made Ralston's other novels so memorable, Found in the Woods is a gentle reminder that the earth does not belong only to its human inhabitants. It is a captivating tale of adventure, self-discovery, and love. It will open your mind and your heart, and quite likely change how you see your world forever.
