An old shepherd lives in isolation with his orphaned granddaughter in rural Europe.
A wolf plagues his life, one that years ago killed his daughter, disfigured his granddaughter, and continues to prey upon his flock, eluding all his efforts to find it. He resolves to take a stand against the beast, which took so much from him, and threatens all that he has left.
This is a tale of love and regret in a rough, unforgiving land. The tale continues in Blood in the Snow, included in this book.
”This big wolf somewhere out in the dark with him was a hunter. It was born to be a predator, at home in the darkness that would not hinder it. He was just an old man riddled with doubt.” – The Shepherd.
