Description

Step inside this unforgettable anthropomorphic tale of love and revenge, as Wind in the Willows meets Fargo and Irvin's signature slice-of-life crime takes on a whole new realm.

Cal is a mutt with a dark past. After the death of his wife he must face his once protector, Maurice and his ferocious gang, who prey on the woodland community from the dump.

Meanwhile, talk of infection spreads like wildfire. Anyone could be rabid, and the local trader bringing much needed supplies to the community has vanished.

Can the town overcome their fears to survive the long winter ahead

'An imaginative spin on the crime fiction genre.' -The New York Times

'An absorbing tale of mystery and longing and the dark struggles of the human condition, I was completely swept up by this anthropomorphized society.' -Diane Les Becquets, bestselling author of Breaking Wild
