Can things get worse?
Jamie's mother has just died. And now he gets a letter from someone he
doesn't know inviting him to spend the summer with her. "Aunt Louise"
shows up at the house and Jamie's dad agrees to let him go. Jamie
can't believe it. Aunt Louise is a bit odd and her house is really
primitive. In spite of his reservations, Jamie begins to enjoy many
of things he is experiencing. But Jamie is feeling more and more
drawn to the wolves in the woods. What is it that Aunt Louise knows
about them? What is at the bottom of the mystery surrounding them?

The weather was perfect and
the setting breathtaking, a mountain slope dotted with thick green trees
set against a bright blue sky. Jamie was thoroughly enjoying a morning
run, staying in shape for the track team might not be so tough after all.
Half way up the trail he had a strong feeling he was being followed. When
he turned around there was nothing there. If you are a fan of the supernatural
and believe in shape-changers, don’t miss this one. (Jean B. Bellavance
