Synopsis

Collected Short Stories, Volume 9 continues Arthur Conan Doyle's survey of his own wide-ranging short fiction. In this collection, the focus shifts to tales of intrigue and suspense. Doyle's knack for crime storytelling is on display in several tight plots involving clever deceptions and justice served. There are also humorous exploits – one story might recount the misadventures of bumbling burglars, while another portrays an absurd duel of wits in high society. Volume 4 doesn't shy away from the macabre, either: a few stories venture into darker territory, with twist endings that reveal criminal horrors or ironic fates. For example, a story like "The Silver Hatchet" mixes crime with a touch of the supernatural in a tale of a cursed object causing madness. Overall, this volume provides a thrilling reading experience, oscillating between light-hearted capers and grim mysteries, all unified by Doyle's clear, vigorous prose.

Waking up naked and freezing in the snow of Central Park after a night as a wolf is just another hellish winter commute for Michael Andrews, a Canadian werewolf grappling with life in New York City.  
Despite possessing enhanced senses, superhuman strength, and agility in his human form, Michael is at a low point, haunted by the loss of the woman he believes is his soulmate, and strained by his secret and his past mistakes. While he uses his unique abilities to thwart crime and help strangers, he questions the point of it all, feeling his efforts are just small drops in a skeptical world. 
This short story, originally created for a werewolf themed Uncollected Anthology (Issue #33) takes place between the novella Stowe Away (Book 2) and the novel Fear and Longing in Los Angeles (Book 3) in the Canadian Werewolf series.
