Gar, a Neanderthal shaman, is tasked with finding the murderer of an interloper in his clan's territory. Dire things will happen to his whole clan if he fails. Like, REALLY dire. He finds himself way outside his comfort zone as he seeks the killer.
At first the characters in this story were a bit confusing, as was the language. However, as the dialogue progressed and I became accustomed to their interactions and way of thinking, the storyline!INE became much more intriguing. I enjoyed this book.
