Book Description
Gulliver’s Travels meets The Underground Railroad: a road trip through the countryside – and the psyche – by the author of Fifteen Dogs. Longlisted for the 2019 Scotiabank Giller Prize Botanist Alfred Homer, ever hopeful and constantly surprised, is invited on a road trip by his parents’ friend, Professor Morgan Bruno, who wants company as he tries to unearth the story of the mysterious poet John Skennen. But this is no ordinary road trip. Alfred and the Professor encounter towns where Black residents speak only in sign language and towns that hold Indigenous Parades; it is a land of house burnings, werewolves, and witches. Complete with Alfred’s drawings of plants both real and implausible, Days by Moonlight is a Dantesque journey taken during the “hour of the wolf,” that time of day when the sun is setting and the traveller can’t tell the difference between dog and wolf. And it asks that perpetual question: how do we know the things we know are real, and what is real anyway? “A mash-up that is part fabulism, part faux biography, and part satire, Days by Moonlight conveys the experience of grief, managing to transform its inarticulable and symbolic weight into a finely wrought literary work.” —Quill and Quire

Book Description
I've been different all my life: always something to hide. But that was only magic. Now ... I've never had a secret this big before. Werewolves know a thing or two about secrets. I thought I had it bad, visiting my sister in England and going to a spellcasters' conference behind her back. Turns out werewolves have been hiding here the whole time. And now they're being murdered. How was I supposed to say no when I was the one human--one outsider, one witch--they asked for help in finding the killer? A simple scry and I'd be back to my vacation. But the pack had other ideas. Between Zar's talk of moonlit beach strolls, Isaac's charm, Jason's kindness, Andrew's fast tongue, and even that bad boy thing Kage and Jed have going on, catching a killer could be the least of my problems. Did I mention they're gorgeous? They're gorgeous. Didn't know that was a werewolf thing. The wolves say they're here to protect me. Funny that I never needed it until they got me involved in hunting down a deranged serial killer. So now this is my vacation. A single witch, six sexy werewolves, and a murderer on the loose. What could possibly go wrong? This is Book 1 in The Witch and the Wolf Pack series.
