I was raised in a small agricultural community in the American midwest. As a young man, I took 26 trips into the Canadian Wilderness, the rugged north country that became the earth of my novel Keepers of the Field. It was my great pleasure to have a long and distinguished career as a lawyer and mediator. My wife Mary and I now live in Boulder, Colorado with our three kids and a little dog named Tinker Bell.

Keepers of the Field isn't just a great summer read. It's the adventure you didn't know you wanted or needed. Hostetter's luscious and unrelenting trek into the "more" grabs you by the soul and doesn't let go.
