During a weekend murder-mystery event at a hotel in Australia’s Blue Mountains, Gaelle finds herself the target of a planned crime.

As Gaelle learns more about Pete, she is both attracted and repelled by his self-possession, humor, and the mysterious aura he carries—just as a large, gentle Irish wolfhound might appear harmless but be capable of striking unexpectedly. Their interactions unfold against the backdrop of the scenic yet tense mountain setting.
