I've read a number of novels by this author in conjunction with Douglas Preston, most notably the Pendergast series. I have also read books written by Preston alone. This is the first one of Child's I've read. It is one of a series featuring Jeremy Logan, a self-described "Enigmalogist" who investigates seemingly explainable phenomena to find their causes. In this episode, Logan checks into a camp for artists and writers in the Adirondack Mountains to complete work on a scholarly paper. He is enlisted by a former college classmate turned park ranger into investigating mysterious brutal murders with the appearance of wild animal attacks in the area. A suspicious and reclusive local family are suspected of being werewolves but local law enforcement is focused on a man who was released from a mental institution supposedly "cured" after committing a bloody murder. Logan eventually solves the mystery but not before there are more deaths. Intriguing but not as good as the author's collaborations with Preston.
