Description

A weird murder mystery that takes place in the Pennsylvania woods. A doctor just out of medical school takes over the practice of another doctor for three months while he is on vacation. The book is very atmospheric and the new doctor tries to get to the bottom of odd occurrences and the murder of a cyclist which was followed by more attacks and murder. The murderer is found to be a werewolf, this is at least partially rationalized but with the possibility left open that the murderer was truly a werewolf.
