(Granville Island Publishing, 175 pages; 2022)
Based on Dr. Brian Hayden's lifetime experience as an archaeologist and anthropologist, Eyes of the Leopard brings to vivid life Old Stone Age France—an age of painted caves, fearsome cave lions, and gigantic mammoths. Along with their ancient technologies and traditions, Hayden explores the ambition, corruption, and spirituality of these ancient people through the eyes of Sev, a young boy facing a daring choice that will soon change his life forever.
