Once There Were Wolves — Charlotte McConaghy

Inti Flynn arrives in the Scottish Highlands with fourteen grey wolves, a traumatised sister and fierce tenacity.

As a biologist, she knows the animals are the best hope for rewilding the ruined landscape and she cares little for local opposition. As a sister, she hopes the remote project will offer her twin, Aggie, a chance to heal after the horrific events that drove them both out of Alaska.

But violence dogs their footsteps and one night Inti stumbles over the body of a farmer. Unable to accept that her wolves could be responsible, she makes a reckless decision to protect them. But if the wolves didn't make the kill, then who did ? And can she trust the man she is beginning to love when he becomes the main suspect ?

This week's book is Once There Were Wolves by Charlotte McConaghy and we'll not be meeting at The Fletcher Moss on William Street in Didsbury but will be meeting online — contact us for details.
