"Darkly compelling." -Tom PerrottaIn the fall of 2018, a bomb goes
off at a water-bottling plant in the mountains of southwest
Virginia, an incident the FBI declares an act of ecoterrorism.
Arrested at the scene is Chris Bright, a mountain hermit with a
long history of activism. Unaccounted for-and presumed dead-is Mara
Wood, an installation artist who in the last two years has lost her
son and left her husband. But Mara's estranged husband David cannot
quite believe she is dead, and as he goes about reconstructing the
story of what happened, he begins to imagine an alternate
narrative-one in which their son doesn't die and his wife doesn't
leave him, one in which his wife doesn't carry on a secret
relationship with Chris Bright, a man bent on fighting back against
the environmental despoliation of his Appalachian home. Lioness is
a page-turning, heart-wrenching examination of extremism: What
pushes people to act violently, and is that violence ever
justified?
