Retired Maine Guide turned beekeeper, Jon Farmer, is spending an idyllic end-of-the-summer vacation exploring the remote Allagash Wilderness in Northern Maine with his precocious seven-year-old granddaughter, Sarah. In Washington D.C., longtime Republican Senator "Stonewall" Jackson learns that he's dying. The political maverick surprises everyone when he announces that before he dies, he's going to get a bill passed banning military-style assault weapons. The wildly popular Vietnam War pilot is well on his way to achieving this goal when he impulsively flies to Maine for a weekend of hunting wild boar on a private preserve. His elated political opponents see this as the perfect opportunity to eliminate their enemy.When the two groups inadvertently cross paths in the Maine wilderness, a seemingly insignificant discovery by Sarah triggers a bizarre chain of events that ends in murder, betrayal, and an unthinkable act of revenge.
