The Wolf’s Long Howl

The wolf at George Henry Harrison’s door howls so loudly he wonders how his neighbors sleep—until he realizes he is the only one who can hear it.

In the late nineteenth-century scramble for dollars, George Henry has lost his money, his credit, and the easy welcome he once enjoyed at his club. As stern bills pile up and old friends grow wary, he struggles to keep his footing—and his sense of honor. Then there is Sylvia Hartley, the woman he loves but believes he must give up because he can no longer provide for her. Poverty closes in from every side, while George Henry tries to meet it with courage, wit, and a threadbare coat. Can he find a way back before the wolf’s howl drowns out everything else?
