"Arizona's rimrock is where two hunters and a hound confront a mountain lion with no fear of man. The cat was raised in tortuous captivity as a roadside show attraction. The cat has escaped to become a danger through its lack of fear. Jake Kane is the older hunter with the hound in the story, Buck. Jake is friends with Johnny's grandfather Allis. This sets the stage for Johnny becoming involved in the epic hunt for the hungry cat once the is enough snow to track it."
"Jim Kjelgaard really never wrote a bad book. This is another entry in his series of young adult books about courages dogs. I enjoyed every one of them."
