Within Cole Matthews lie anger, rage, and hate. Cole has been stealing, fighting, and lying for years. His attack on a classmate have left the boy with permanent physical and deep psychological damage and Cole in the biggest trouble of his life. To most, Cole seems beyond hope. But when he's offered a chance at an alternative path called Circle Justice, based on native American tradition, Cole finds himself banished to a remote Alaskan Island, where his rage and isolation lead him to another brazen attack. This time, his intended victim is the Spirit Bear of native American legend -- and the clumsy assault ends with Cole mauled nearly to death, desperately clinging to the life he had tried so hard to waste. Rescuers arrive to save Cole's life, but it is the attack of the Spirit Bear that begins Cole's long journey to accepting responsibility for his life and saving his soul.This gripping, graphic survival story from an award-winning writer paints an unsparing picture of one violent teen and offers a poignant testimony to the power of pain that can destroy and may also heal. |
