The Pack

Résumé du livre

A haunted soldier takes a job in the Highlands and finds the glen waiting for him. The wolves are not the danger. The people are not human.

Evan Milne, a former Military Intelligence officer marked by guilt and trauma, accepts a job managing a rewilding project on a remote Highland estate. The role is meant to be simple. Watch the wolves. Keep intruders out. Stay quiet.

The land has other ideas.

The estate’s master, Lord Denacuileagan, is elegant and unreadable. His servant, the Shepherd, is a brutal red-bearded presence with an unsettling history. Leanah, a woman tied to Evan’s past, returns with a beauty that hides something much older and more dangerous.

When bodies begin to surface in the woods, Evan realises he has not been hired for conservation work. He has been lured into a ritual written into the bones of the glen. Every figure around him is part of a design that reaches further back than memory. The wolves are only the beginning.

The Pack is a tense and atmospheric thriller that blends military trauma, folklore and horror into a relentless descent into madness and myth.
