Mama Sasquatch

Killer asteroid Kali nearly wipes out civilization on Earth.

In the aftermath, isolated communities struggle to survive, finding new rules, rituals, and customs for unimaginable situations. Why wait until sixteen to drive or twenty-one to drink alcohol when there are no roads? Why is a marriage ceremony necessary when there are no churches? Do possessions and property still have value when there is no money? And if they have no value, who says that theft is a crime?

In Skookum Chuck, Oregon, Sheriff Brent Macauley holds chaos and lawlessness at bay through sheer stubbornness and dependable honesty. Thieving raiders, who resort to murder, have no place in his town.

A female Sasquatch rescues thirteen-year-old Bo and his younger sister Bee, providing their only chance for survival—taking what they need, where they find it. With civilization destroyed, who is right—the ones who want to return to the old ways, or the children who survive with a more primitive role model?

This retelling of the Tarzan legends asks questions as pertinent today as they were a century—or more—ago.
