HEAR SAMPLE

In this third novel of the Cree Black mystery series, a friend and homicide inspector asks
Cree to help investigate a human skeleton recently unearthed in the foundation of a fine Victorian home,
apparently the bones of a victim of the 1906 earthquake. The bones have intrigued the forensic anthropology
team at UC Berkeley with their peculiar anatomical deformities. They call the skeleton Wolfman. Who was
the Wolfman?

Cree's historical research takes her back to the unholy glory days of the Barbary Coast, old San Francisco's
infamous red-light district. Her narrative is illuminated by entries from the 1889 diary of Lydia Schweitzer, a
Victorian woman with her own secret interest in the Wolfman. As the mystery unravels, both women must
face human nature's darkest aspects with courage and compassion.

Daniel Hecht was a professional guitarist for twenty years. He took up writing in 1989 and received his M.F.A. degree from the Iowa Writers' Workshop in 1992. His first novel, Skull Session, was a best-seller. He lives in Montpelier, Vermont.

Anna Fields has found her true home behind the microphone after beginning her career on the stage in Washington, D.C. She has garnered several AudioFile Earphones Awards and won the coveted Audie Award in 2004.
