Abstract: A novel on eco-terrorism featuring Adam Gabriel, ex-fighter pilot turned defender of the environment. It begins with a logger in Maine cutting trees as fast as he can before a law turns a forest into a wilderness preserve. Opposing him is the woman editor of the local environmental paper, but her editorials do little good. Fresh from the eco-wars out West, Gabriel, whose home town this is, swings into action, spiking trees which causes chain saws to break. The logger replies by hiring a killer and the conflict escalates. By the author of Stand Before Your God.
