Cry Baby Hollow
by Love, Aimee
There are things we all know about werewolves:
• The only way to become a werewolf is to be bitten by one.
• They only come out on the full moon.
• They can only be killed with a silver bullet.
• They are not real.
But when Aubrey Guinn comes to Eastern Tennessee to help Vina, an aging family friend, werewolves are the furthest things from her mind. She is preoccupied with more mundane concerns, like keeping Vina’s ingrate step-children from putting her in a nursing home, avoiding the advances of her handsome but dim witted neighbor, and keeping her mailbox away from the good old boys baseball bats. It isn’t until Aubrey finds the body of a local boy, gruesomely murdered, that she begins to see that life in the country is anything but slow, and werewolves are far from what Hollywood had led her to expect.
