FIRST LOOKWe are in Texas during the dark and confusing years of the Civil War. On an isolated homestead, in the middle of the night, a panther (mountain lion) savagely attacks a family, mauling a young mixed-race girl named SAMANTHA and killing her mother. The girl is left scared and traumatized. Determined to avenge her mother's death, Samantha enlists her half-brother BENJAMIN in an improbable attempt to track and kill the panther. Her obsession also ensnares LORENZO PACHECO, a charismatic Tejano outlaw; a haunted, compassionate preacher named DOBSON BECK; and ZECHARIAH, Beck's aged but unstoppable "panther dog".
But even as they set out to seek revenge, they are being trailed by CLARENCE HANLIN, a sadistic Confederate soldier with a lethal score to settle.
THE WHICH WAY TREE is a taut, pulse-pounding story of revenge and obsession, set in an unforgiving Texas wilderness.
