After struggling with drug and alcohol abuse and an inability to complete anything worthwhile, Jeremiah James is inspired by his anthropologist cousin, Chelsea, to chase a childhood dream they shared: hunting a Sasquatch. Together, they hire Grettir and Mati, two savvy Manitoban guides, to take them deep into the snowy wilderness to shoot a documentary film.
But they soon encounter something far more dangerous... Something that watches and waits for them. With the trap laid and no clear way out, Grettir can only wait and hope that Mati is prepared for the fight ahead. Will they meet their ends at the claws of a terrifying creature? Or will the adventurers survive the frigid, dangerous journey and return to civilization to tell the tale?

I got some of these audiobooks in the series and this was the first one on the list in the order I got - although I didn't realize it wasn't with Lux.
Overall, this was not my jam. It took half the book for their adventure to start (which is crazy when the audio is only 3hrs ish long??) and before then it was mainly going on about how the characters met and how the snobby rich guy was an addict with zero goals in life (so let's go hunt Bigfoot, I guess?).
I got this one hoping for a decent wendigo story - this was not that. It didn't follow the lore of the cryptid - It lost me as soon as it wanted to describe the thing as a troll. 😐
This was an interesting book. I'd never "met" or read about a wendigo, so this was a first for me. I don't know how "accurate" it was, not that these things are real. Consider this to be about interactions between people rather than a "monster" story. We are not introduced to this thing until the very end. Then it is short and sweet. It is an entertaining story as long as you know you have to wait until the end - then it is a big surprise
