Synopsis

Two men, centuries apart, dream of being a wolf. One is burned at the stake. Another is locked in a psychiatric hospital for most of his life. And Annie Jackson is about to find out why… Vowing once again to remove herself from society, Annie is once more living alone in her little cottage by the shores of a loch. But when an old enemy – now locked up in a high-security hospital – comes calling, begging her to find the son that she was forced to give up at the age of 17, Annie is tempted out of seclusion. The missing boy holds the key to ending Annie's curse, and he may be the only chance that both she and Lewis have of real happiness. Annie and Lewis begin an investigation that takes them back to the past, a time etched in Scottish folklore, a period of history that may just be repeating itself. And what they uncover could destroy not just some of the most powerful people in the country, who will stop at nothing to protect their wealth and their secrets, but also Annie's life, and everything she holds dear…

A stunning addition to what is already proving to be a remarkable series. As a reader I sit back and ponder over what I have just read, but in a good way, as it manages to be so many different things at the same time. Truly incredible. It manages to meld historical fiction, a modern crime mystery, t......more

Goodreads review by Mary on September 11, 2025

I have read and loved both books in the Annie Jackson series, but the third, The Howling, is the darkest and most chilling yet. I found myself completely pulled into Annie Jackson’s haunted world. Living alone by the loch, she’s cut off from everything—but when an old adversary, now institutionalised......more
