Seeking Whom He May Devour by Vargas Fred
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.
'Commissaire Adamsberg must be the most engaging French detective since Maigret' Scotland on Sunday. 'Poetic, offbeat and gently addictive. Her prose has an unusual deftness, a wry humour. A unique voice' Guardian. 'An intriguing, idiosyncratic voice' Time Out. 'A work of real class - its characters sharp, multi-faceted and original, and it style crisply intelligent' Glasgow Herald
