Publisher's summary

Scarlett Schrock witnessed her father being killed by a rare coyote attack in the woods of Unity, Maine when she was sixteen, but not everyone in her Amish community believes her.

Perhaps she was so overcome with grief that she imagined the entire thing. Scarlett always did have a wild imagination.

But Scarlett knows what she saw, and she's determined to hunt down the coyote that took her father's life.

After ten years with no coyote attacks, something vicious suddenly begins killing off livestock in the community at night. Scarlett knows the offending coyote has returned, so when a hunting party forms to hunt it down, she's one of the first to volunteer. Amish women do hunt across America, and there are no rules against it in Unity.

The Amish are now legally allowed to wear red instead of vibrant orange while hunting in Maine, so Scarlett wears a deep red cloak in her father's memory, and not just when she's hunting.

Nathaniel Raber would ask Scarlett to marry him if only she would stop hunting and wearing that ridiculous, flashy red cloak, and he isn't afraid to let her know. Scarlett's Grossmammi, her grandmother, persistently tries to play matchmaker and hopes to see Scarlett married before she dies, but Scarlett can't stand Nathaniel at all and knows in her heart that God has someone out there just for her.

During the hunt, Nathaniel insists Scarlett won't last a day in the frigid temperatures, but her father taught her well.

Jacob Fisher, her neighbor, has been in love with Scarlett for a while but can't find the courage to tell her how he feels. He loves watching her play with his two children, Sadie and Eli, who adore her, and he admires her courage and spunk.

As the hunting party treks deeper into the frozen woods, they are faced with much more than a mere coyote. Will Scarlett prove herself before the coyote kills one of their own, or can she put aside her pride and work with Jacob to stay alive?
