Author of four #1 digital bestsellers, Steven Manchester has been praised far and wide as one of our greatest storytellers of the heart. His new novel, THE CHANGING SEASON, is his most compelling – and most acclaimed – novel yet, the story of a season when everything changed for a young man and of the canine best friend that stood with him through it all.
“The Hike” is a prequel short story that tells of a momentous excursion into the woods between these two companions – one that will change both of them forever.
