Hi, and welcome to the home of the Timber Beast.

My name is Norm Benson and I'm the author of a manuscript In a Dark Wood, a forensic forestry eco-thriller.

Earth Always!, an anarchist environmental group, has proclaimed Sierra Summer in response to the Sierra Nevada Accord II that sanctions clearcutting. This means ecotage—monkeywrenching, roadblocks, and tree sitting. When forester Nate Carpenter discovers the body of a tree sitter, the sheriff makes an arrest based on clear motive, opportunity, and the means. Nate believes they have the wrong person in jail. This belief puts him at odds with the protesters, the public, the sheriff, and his own boss. In his search for the killer, his belief also puts him—and the forest he is sworn to protect—in danger.

I'm a registered professional forester in California with thirty-five years of experience. My background includes forest management, fire fighting, law enforcement, teaching, and public information.
