Feast of the Badger / Red Fang

It's a "Stalk" doubleheader! In "Feast of the Badger," people have vanished. Majestic Maples, an exclusive community for the uppercrust, rests over rolling hills formerly teeming with timber and wetland wilderness. As nature gave way to progress, many of the Minneapolis area's most successful made it their dream location. Their own private suburban wonderland, letting them reign over vast fields of outdoor beauty. But there's a catch. In the surrounding wild lands lurks a horrific threat. A nightmare some of the residents have met firsthand...but those who have cannot be asked to describe it. They're nowhere to be found. Enter outdoor tracker, bounty hunter, and violence enthusiast Lee Bodkin. Along with deadeye partner Gladdis Montrose and attack dog Sheba, the team sets out to piece things together and stop the savagery. With instincts in stealth mode and weapons set to fire, years of experience and savvy are put to the ultimate test. For waiting in secret is a menace dating back millennia; one false step, and the trio could meet the same fate as the missing victims. And end up gone for good. In "Red Fang," the cold isn't the only thing that's biting. During most winters, they try to not freeze. This winter, they're trying to not get eaten alive. In the town of Taconite Bluff, Minnesota, the daily grind has always been accompanied by the rhythmic, ancient slap of Lake Superior's frigid waves, the breeze from the big water feeling comforting in summer and icy in winter. The salt-of-the-earth community has for centuries relied upon the giant lake, with shipping, fishing, and wild game forming the town's livelihood, sustenance, and forage. Now, some of the town's residents themselves have been targeted as forage. Evidence near a recent murder site shows clear signs - and plenty of it - of a wolf attack. With additional community members still missing in the forest, it's time to call in help. Enter tracking specialist and violence devotee Lee Bodkin, who, along with precision shooting partner Gladdis Montrose and attack dog Sheba, arrives in town to clean up the oversized pest problem. It won't be the first time they've dropped the hammer on maneaters. But what sounded like a standard assignment unfurls into a deadly ordeal, churning with killers both animal and human, and predators more formidable than anything that's ever run in the nearby hills. All led by a monstrous presence, one that turns out to be voracious, ruthless...and calculating.
