Book Overview

by David G. Ferguson (Author)

Conservation Officer Rob McNabb teams up with Samantha Williams, a government bush pilot in an attempt to bring a murderous polar bear poacher to justice in the midst of a harsh northern winter. The story is set in the remote Hudson and James Bay Lowland region of northeastern Ontario. Action, suspense and a string of extreme challenges make for slim odds of success for the pair, let alone their survival. And a budding romance hangs in the balance. While the setting is regional, the message is global.

Author Biography

David G. Ferguson is a retired Ontario Conservation Officer (AKA Game Warden) who invested his career with the Ministry of Natural Resources working in three diverse regions of the province. He spent three of those years in what was then the Moosonee district, a vast unique region encompassing 95 thousand square miles of the James and Hudson Bay Lowland. This is Ontario's arctic frontier and home to the James Bay Cree. The world's most southerly population of polar bears also lives here. Having met thousands of people during his career, ranging from perfectly law abiding folks to dangerous criminals you wouldn't want to turn your back on, he retired with a wealth of experience in human behavior in a variety of geographic locations ... experiences that could be woven into characters and places in some exciting fictional adventure stories. This book is his second. Dave lives with his wife Pat in northern Ontario, and when they are not on the road touring the continent, he can be found out on the lake in the summer, or feeding the wood stove in the cooler seasons while conjuring up his next story.

About David G. Ferguson

David Ferguson is a retired Ontario conservation officer (CO) who invested 24 years of his career working in three diverse regions of the province with the Ministry of Natural Resources. And to be clear, being a CO is a vocation, a calling, - it is not just a 'job'. In that profession, he learned that successful law enforcement is an intense study of human behaviour. On the job, he met and dealt with a wide variety of people - a great many good, law abiding folks and then some others who landed on the wrong side of the law. Even the people who broke the law included an assortment of characters ranging from those who accidently 'slipped' over the line and maybe deserved a bit of a break, to outright bad guys you wouldn't want to turn your back on. Many of the latter group are also known to the police. Dave and his family, plus cats and dogs, have sailed Georgian Bay aboard a yawl that bears a remarkable resemblance to Water Baby, further validating the story-line in this book. They have sailed to, and visited the islands and coves detailed in these pages. As an avid reader of fiction himself, Dave knows that his career provided him with a wealth of human characteristics and a variety of geographic locations that could be woven into fictional characters and places in some exciting imaginary adventure stories. This one is his first. Dave lives with his wife Pat in northern Ontario, and when they are not on the road touring the continent, he can be found out on the lake in the summer, or feeding the wood stove in the cooler seasons while conjuring up his next story.
