From publisher blurb: In a land of herd and pasture, where wealth is measured by their livestock, anything that threatens those numbers is a problem to be solved. The Herding Tribe has a dragon problem. The beast was first sighted some years ago, even then fully grown and fearsome. For a time there was no incident, but then the cattle began to vanish, followed by a sighting of the creature flying away, cow in claw. Now she takes cattle almost daily. Something must be done, though what exactly may depend on what a party is capable of achieving, and what they can do while managing to sleep at night afterward. Tracking the creature is only half the battle, after all.
