Darryl Bettencourt a first time author wanted to write a novel as one of his goals in life. He was raised on a ranch near Isleton, California and was an avid hunter and trapper of small animals as a teenager. His favorite animal was the Bengal Tiger. In the back of his mine he knew the book would be about hunting and a trip to the jungles of India to pursue a Bengal Tiger trophy. He wanted a woman relationship in the story. That would truly make the book an adventurous love story.
