Doug Hayburn is a logger with a massive problem. Keeping it hidden while living in a logging camp is too tricky, so he chooses the solitary life of a ‘Timberbeast,’ a man who lives away from the bunkhouse and works alone in felling trees. Consigned to a life of loneliness, he sees his world turned upside-down with the arrival of young Logan Pettigrew, a whistlepunk with the exact opposite problem. Together, they make a good fit.
Their kinship grows more intense when they go to town for a full day and night of drunken excess known as a “Logger’s Delight.” Instead of hiding their unusual gifts, they learn to celebrate them in the company of other like-minded loggers.
