Book Overview

Under a freezing Arctic sky, a wolf carries a baby to a remote village.

Taken in by the villagers and named 'Vulchanok' or 'Little Wolf', the lost baby grows into a happy little boy.

But night after night, his dreams are walked by his rescuer, the wolf-witch. She leads him to the Ghost World and makes him a shaman.

The villagers begin to fear him and he grows into a lonely man -- until he sees a vision of a lovely girl as lonely as himself, imprisoned in a small room. Shrugging on his falcon skin, he flies to find her.

When a falcon drums its wings against her window, Kristiana opens it -- and is astonished when the hawk lights on the floor and turns into a man. She and Vulchanok are soon in love.

But Kristiana's brother, Glev, will never allow her to marry a dirty northern huntsman -- and Vulchanok's wolf-wife is fiercely jealous.

Can the lovers survive the hatred and jealousy surrounding them?

About Susan Price

About ten years before she started writing this book, Susan Price came across a quote, in Haldane's Drove Roads of Scotland, about drove dogs walking home by themselves at the end of a drove. Only much later did she learn about 'bondagers' or bonded labourers, from her Scottish partner. The two bits of information came together and inspired this book, the first book by this award-winning author to be self-published without having been previously published elsewhere. In researching the book, Price and her partner followed the drove road to Mull. Thankfully, their transport and accommodation was rather better than they would have had as early 19th Century drovers. Susan Price won the prestigious Carnegie Medal for The Ghost Drum, the first in her Ghost World Sequence. She won The Guardian Fiction prize for The Sterkarm Handshake.
