 Nicholas Evans sets a second great novel in Montana. The Loop is full of intrigue, moving with the speed and assurance of a wolf pack honing in for the kill. And that kill - the carcass of the family guard dog - is exactly what Buck Calder, a cattle rancher uses as rationale for inciting a small Montana town to riot and retribution. Stuck in the middle is Helen Ross, a johnny-come-lately wolf biologist from Cape Cod. Evans must have met my friends from the crusty, dogged naturalist of Fish, Wildlife, and Parks in Helena to the lady entrepreneur who meets the challenge of starting a small business in Hope, Montana.
