Publisher's Synopsis
Recurring 16- to 27-inch footprints throughout the Pacific Northwest have led many Americans to believe that reclusive, ape-like creatures called Sasquatch stalk the woods. Few have had more than a brief glimpse of them, and no one has conducted direct, long-term observation of them in their natural habitat. Until now. Walter Spink is near-sighted, socially awkward, and accident prone. He is also a self-styled monster hunter. When he and his meek assistant, Matt Preston, travel to the Pacific Northwest seeking Sasquatch, their chance of finding them appears nil, but unexpectedly the monster hunters find themselves living and traveling with a group of Sasquatch. During their sojourn with the Sasquatch, Walter and Matt learn whether caterpillars taste like chicken and how to annoy a silverback without really trying. Somehow they navigate the social pitfalls of the group, but Walter's growing obsession with protecting the Sasquatch will test his loyalty to his own kind--and to Matt.
