Aprašymas

MOWBRAY AND THE WOLVES is a fantasy mystery set in 1938 in Tennessee and New York (83,000 words; 3rd person POV). As the world braces for another world war. Martin Mowbray's employer, Baron Culdraca, has been trying to keep his fortune out of the hands of Mussolini's fascists and comes to the U.S. to an eerie mansion in Galliford, New York. The townspeople exhaust him with repeated requests for him to attend parties, so he locates a quiet, dark sanctuary in Eastern Tennessee. Blue Mountain and its underground lake and cavern should provide him with the peace he seeks. Unfortunately, as Mowbray and "Phillip Baron" drive down at night in their Duesenberg, they come across a gruesome death when a rural mail carrier has apparently been attacked by a wolf. Other deaths occur in Hansonville, and Mowbray uses his ability to interact with ghosts to see if he can solve the crimes. An accident when Mowbray was twelve left him with the ability to see ghosts but not to be able to differentiate them from the living.
