Kay Grayson was by no means a conventional woman. After leading a wild life living on boats and training attack dogs, she settled in North Carolina where she fell in love with black bears. Kay took her love of bears farther than most, by feeding the bears and allowing them to live in her trailer with her. But when she's found dead one day, authorities are left to wonder if the bears she loved so much caused her demise.
