Hundreds of millions of years ago, the Dover Fault was formed - a geological formation which stretches across the Island of Newfoundland from Dover in the northeast to Hermitage Bay in the south. Along this fault line, large underground caverns may have been formed. The Warm Place is a story about a band of Beothuk people who survived in the wilderness of Newfoundland to the present day without being discovered by living in these underground caverns. It imagines how they have walked amongst us and influenced us for the past two hundred years. The book details the struggles they underwent to remain undiscovered, and the ends to which they went to protect their secret location. As the modern age crept upon them, airplanes flew over them, and hunters on all – terrain vehicles encountered them, they had a difficult decision to make-to fight fiercely to remain unknown, to melt into the modern world, or to do both. The Warm Place is the final book in The Beothuk Trilogy. The first two books in the trilogy, Bello Maro and The Mark of Time, can be read in either order and are not dependent on each other to be understood and enjoyed. The Warm Place can also be read independent of the first two books; however, the story has nuances and situations that are better appreciated if you are familiar with the characters in the first two books.
