Wolves at Bay

At the insistence of his wife, a desperate young father, Ward, risks wolf-infested woods to hire an herbal healer to save his ailing infant son.
But Ward has a hidden history with the would-be healer, and some would say herbalism is akin to witchcraft.
When wolves, literal and metaphorical, turn up, ready to tear into their victim, Ward must face their slavering jaws to save not only his family, but also his own soul.
Wolves at Bay is a novella concerned with family love and accountability and the way society seeks scapegoats when faced with fear and pain.
