Book excerpt: Based on the Siberian wolf attack of 1927 and told from the point of view of both wolves and humans. It was a Wolf Winter, so deeply cold that forest trails were empty and only humans had enough food to survive. Over 100 wolves, the largest pack ever seen, surround the Siberian village of Pilovo, desperate in their search for game. Pets and farm animals stand alert, villagers sense trouble, the frozen stage is set. This account details each event of the attack, the unrelenting terror, the vicious combat. Neither wolf nor man is safe; neither can imagine the outcome. Arctic cold and savage fighting inflict endless damage on predator and prey. In this isolated wilderness, tucked inside a bleak country, only animal cunning and ruthless perseverance will prevail.
