Publisher's Synopsis
This gallop thorough the woods of the Pacific Northwest begins and ends in the fabulous worlds of fungi. When a body is discovered next to a rare shelf fungus, an elderly botanist works to protect the polypore. But the woods are also home to poachers of big-leaf maples and to lecherous men who seize an opportunity to hold three young women hostage. Fungi link the worlds of law enforcement, botany, eldercare and adventure in this second mushroom thriller by Ellen King Rice.
