Jake Vaughn, a likable, easy-going man, is respected by the small Alabama community where he lives and serves as postmaster. Eric, who secretly loves Jake, is transcendently harsh, cruel, pure in his urge to destroy anything he perceives as a threat to Jake. Imagining himself a wolf, Eric stalks the man he is doomed to protect, the man who is blissfully unaware of his existence. Mickey and Janice, college students, find themselves attracted to Jake as well as to each other. Eric spies on their growing relationship and wonders if this too becomes a threat. All four—Eric and Jake, Mickey and Janice—are caught in a web of violence and horror with mysterious roots in the past of Eric and Jake. A man disappears. The brother of Jake's postal clerk is brutally murdered. Wholesale slaughter devastates the community. Jake's friendship with the county sheriff brings him to the center of the investigation. Each death tightens the net around the killer, but will it capture him in time to save the lovers and the community? Rumors of Wolves is a work of horror and psychological suspense, shot through with flashes of humor and tragedy, wit and compassion.
