What Wolves Know [hc]

Kit Reed writes fresh, exciting stories ripped straight out of tomorrow's headlines.
A boy raised by wolves, the dog that knows exactly who is next to die, a monkey that writes bestsellers-- no, Kit Reed's new collection is by no means the next Animal Planet. What Wolves Know also contains "Doing the Butterfly," in which a convict with murder in his heart sets out to deceive the newest Magnetic Resonance Imaging machine, and the sparkling story "Special," about a nature writer named Ashley Famous, who overturns local society in a small town on the Hudson. In "The Chaise," a university community stands by while the narrator grapples with a despicable piece of furniture, and baffled parents in "Denny" arm themselves, fearing that their son, the title character, "may go all Columbine on us."
