Author's note: In the book Touch Spirit Bear, I compared different events in the book.
Normally Cole Matthews bad behavior would have sent him strait to jail. Instead he gets to spend a whole year on a remote island. While there he burns his supplies and cabin. In effect to his bad behavior and getting mauled by a spirit bear, he gets sent back to his home town. After getting a second chance, he goes back to the island to fulfill his time. Realizing that to heal himself from his bad deeds, he must help the ones he hurt, to heal.
If he did not get sent back to the island the rest of the book would have been about his jail time. Making this book very boring. Obviously this is a huge plot twist and made the book more interesting.
