Bear witness - Mandy Haggith

The brutal shooting of a bear cub galvanizes ecologist Callis MacArthur into becoming an activist. Dreaming of bears roaming free-even in Scotland, 1,000 years after their disappearance-she finds herself exploring Europe's remotest forests and meeting colorful characters who are as passionate about nature as she is. But as she begins to embrace her wild side, she faces escalating challenges: she must risk her career and endure agonizing personal losses to avoid being swept up in events and emotions beyond her control. Combining lyrical prose, mythical themes, romance, and a fantastic plot, Bear Witness is a page-turner with a heart and mind.
