## Description

The publisher's description:

> Tracker is known far and wide for his skills as a hunter: "He has a nose,"
people say. Hired to find a mysterious boy who has disappeared, Tracker breaks
his own rule of always working alone when he finds himself part of a group
assembled to search for the boy. The band is a hodgepodge, full of unusual
characters with secrets of their own, including a shape-shifting man-animal
known as the Leopard.
>
> As Tracker follows the boy's scent, he and the band are set upon by
creatures intent on destroying them. As he fights for survival, Tracker starts
to wonder: Who, really, is this boy? Why has he been missing for so long? Why
do so many people want to keep the boy from being found? And perhaps most
important of all: Who is telling the truth, and who is lying?
