A daughter disappears in the middle of the night. What happens in the aftermath of this tragedy-after the search is abandoned, after the TV crews move on to cover the latest horrific incident-is the story of Coyote. There is a marriage and a detective. There is a storm, a talk show host, and a roasted boar. People are murdered and things are hidden. Coyotes skulk in the woods, a man stands by the fence, and a tale emerges within this familiar landscape of the violent unknown.
"'Nothing better than a short tale with the power to linger - and haunt - long after it's put back on the shelf. Colin Winnette's Coyote is one of them'"
Washington Independent Review of Books
"'As the novel speeds toward its shattering conclusion, the reader will be left hungry for a second read in order to put the pieces of the narrator's haunting tale back together again'"
Verse
"'Coyote is wrenched from the heart-a powerful study of pain, madness, and peace...Coyote is a small miracle'"
