In this frightening and surprising novel, the eccentric, wayward genius of Commissaire Adamsberg is pitted against the deep-rooted mysteries of one Alpine village's history and a very present problem: wolves.
Disturbing things have been happening up in the French mountains; more and more sheep are being found with their throats torn out. The evidence points to a wolf of unnatural size and strength. However Suzanne Rosselin thinks it is the work of a werewolf. Then Suzanne is found slaughtered in the same manner. Her friend Camille attempts, with Suzanne's son Soliman and her shepherd, Watchee, to find out who, or what, is responsible and they call on Commissaire Adamsberg for help.
'Ingenious. Slick, creepy and full of engaging odd characters, this thriller is a class act' Independent

Condition: Muy bueno. : En un pequeño pueblo de los Alpes franceses, los habitantes se ven perturbados por una serie de ataques a ovejas, cuyas gargantas aparecen cortadas. El miedo se intensifica cuando un aldeano es asesinado de la misma manera, lo que lleva a algunos a sospechar de un hombre lobo. La leyenda local señala a Massart, un aldeano sin barba, como posible culpable. Soliman, el hijo adoptivo de la víctima, junto con Le Veilleur y Camille, deciden investigar por su cuenta, pero pronto se dan cuenta de su falta de experiencia. Deciden recurrir al Comisario Adamsberg, conocido por sus métodos poco convencionales, quien desentierra una verdad sorprendente que desafía las creencias de los aldeanos.
