"Great mystery"
While painting a mural at the zoo, certain events cause
artist Caroline Canfield to withdraw from close human
contact.
Months later she joins an Internet list server
centering on wolves. Through many postings, Caroline feels
as if she is ready to meet her new friends. The group
planned to meet on the Valentine's Day weekend at Wolf
Prairie, the wolf behavioral research and end education
center. Hank, the owner of the center, is trying to
restore the prairie in his little corner of the world. From the time she arrives at Wolf Prairie nothing seems to
go right for Caroline. The other group members regard her
as a klutz and a lunatic because she insists she found the
murdered body of one of them in a deserted cave. After
drinking liquids that were meant for Hank, Caroline has
hallucinatory episodes but everyone thinks she is
paranoid. Caroline thinks something very ugly is going on
at Wolf Prairie and she intends to discover what it is,
partly to see the truth come out and partly to prove that
she is as sane as anyone in the group. Anthony and Agatha awards nominee Jacqueline Fielder has
created
another Caroline Canfield mystery that is exciting,
realistic and completely absorbing. SKETCHES WITH WOLVES
will appeal to Agatha Christie fans even though it contains
better characterizations. This is a must read for anyone
who likes a realistic puzzler. Harriet Klausner
