Inhaltsangabe
Vom Autor des beliebten nationalen Bestsellers Migrations, einem pulsierenden neuen Roman in den wilden schottischen Highlands.
Inti Flynn kommt mit ihrer Zwillingsschwester Aggie nach Schottland, um ein Team von Biologen zu leiten, die mit der Wiedereinführung von vierzehn grauen Wölfen in die abgelegenen Highlands beauftragt sind. Sie hofft, nicht nur die sterbende Landschaft zu heilen, sondern auch Aggie, ungemacht von den schrecklichen Geheimnissen, die die Schwestern aus Alaska vertrieben haben.
Inti ist auch nicht die Frau, die sie einmal war, verändert durch den Schaden, den sie erlebt hat – von Menschen sowohl der Wildnis als auch einander zugefügt wurde. Doch als die Wölfe alle überraschen, indem sie gedeihen, beginnt Inti ihre Wache im Stich zu lassen und sich sogar der Möglichkeit der Liebe zu öffnen. Doch wenn ein Bauer tot gefunden wird, weiß Inti, wo die Stadt die Schuld legen wird. Inti kann nicht akzeptieren, dass ihre Wölfe dafür verantwortlich sein könnten, trifft Inti eine rücksichtslose Entscheidung, sie zu schützen. Aber wenn die Wölfe den Töten nicht geschafft haben, wer dann? Und was wird Inti tun, wenn der Mann, auf den sie fällt, der Hauptverdächtige zu sein scheint?
Charlotte McConaghy's Once There Were Wolves ist die unvergessliche Geschichte einer Frau, die verzweifelt die Kreaturen retten möchte, die sie liebt – wenn sie nicht von einer Wildnis verzehrt wird, die einst ihre Zuflucht war.
