The Wolf's Lair. Beastly Detective. Book One

Life in the Far Forest cannot be called peaceful: not a day goes by without crimes, chases, suspicions, and beastly intrigues. "The Wolf's Lair" is a detective story where the investigation is led by the elderly and experienced detective Badger... Senior and his assistant, the bold and reckless Badgerot. All the characters in the book are animals; however, they can love and hate, lie and tell the truth to one’s face, trust and despair, betray and save just as well as we, the human-like readers. Figuring out who is a friend and who is an enemy, who is an innocent fluffy victim and who is a fatal predatory female, who is a hostage and who is the captor can only be done at the end, for according to the rules of the genre, the criminal remains unknown until the very finale. But it is clear even to a hedgehog that all the stories are written with humor and irony, and the plots will captivate not just children but also their parents."The Wolf's Lair" is the first part of the series "Beastly Detective" by Anna Starobinets, which also includes "The Predator's Right", "Claws of Rage", "The Thief", "Gods of Mango", and "Tail-Eaters".Now available in softcover!
