Editorial Reviews

Review

. . . finely tuned, poetic novel. Beautiful and thought provoking. Anyone with an interest in people and nature would enjoy it. -- LighthouseLiteraryReviews.com - FIVE BEACON REVIEW

From the Publisher

Tinnemaha Creek, a contemporary novel, takes on an issue that's all too common today. What to do when wild creatures wander into our backyards.

Who's right? The animal rights' advocates who believe wildlife and humans can live in harmony? The people who want wildlife eliminated to avoid any threat? And what of the cougars? Will they be the ultimate losers in this deadly battle?

Taddeo, having spent much time in the Sierras consulting with ranchers, wildlife specialists, and Native Americans, obviously knows the area extremely well. His tale of those people and the wild creatures will enthrall you.
