Never bring a wild gray wolf home. Seventeen-year-old Kirby Gant changed his family’s fate the day he brought a dying wolf home to heal it after he discovered it in one of his coyote traps. Kirby thought his younger sister, Lilly, and their mom, Rose, would be able to take care of it. But when his neighbor’s heifer cow was attacked and savagely killed, everyone thought it was a wolf. Kirby hoped it wasn’t the injured wolf’s mate, a large alpha male wolf that was roaming the area. Amy Mathers, a high school cheerleader, never makes it home after a basketball game. The small northern Michigan community is frozen in fear. Could it be the same beast that has preyed on the livestock?
