Book Description Condition: Very Good. Set in Nashville and the mountains of East Tennessee, Moore's skillfully wr itten, absorbing first novel is the story of a woman caught between her lov e for two men. When Sarah Lannom, her husband, Dick, and another couple go to an isolated lodge where the men will hunt deer, Sarah is astonished to f ind that their guide is Sonny Woods, her brother's best friend and the man she was to marry 17 years before. But Sonny returned from Vietnam deeply tr aumatized, and a series of misunderstandings kept them apart; four months l ater Sarah married Dick. Sonny, it turns out, has married a mountain woman who is Sarah's distant cousin. By the time the trip is over, Sarah has expe rienced a nightmarish scare in the wilderness, followed by an idyll of love ; her life has reached a turning point and is irrevocably changed. The book holds the reader's interest though some of the plot devices seem contrived . Even when she is caught in the toils of a terrible dilemma, Sarah is not a compelling character, however, and we never understand what makes her irr esistible to two men. Dick is unbelievably handsome and noble; Sonny's beha vior, even when seen as the legacy of war, tinges on the bizarre. On the ot her hand, Moore's sense of placethe mountain wildernessis acute, and her kn owledge of deerhunting illuminates the behavior of both the hunter and the hunted.
