Dr. Roberta Collineur, a half-Cree veterinarian with a double doctorate and a troubled past, finds herself stranded on a frozen Alberta highway with her dog, Mahegan, and a truck full of dreams-and secrets. When she rescues a wounded wolf cub, her journey takes an unexpected turn that leads her to Knife Bend, a town where time seems frozen and prejudice runs deep.
As Roberta fights to save the cub she names Prometheus, she must also confront the ghosts of her own trauma, including a stolen childhood, a lost son, and a past she tried to outrun. Alongside Doc Henry Steiner-a gruff, old-school vet who isn't sure what to make of her-Roberta must use every ounce of her training and spirit to give Prometheus a second chance.
Blending science and Indigenous wisdom, Henry and the Wolf Doctor is a powerful story of healing, identity, and second chances. It explores the bonds between humans and animals, the weight of memory, and the quiet strength it takes to reclaim one's life and voice. With richly drawn characters, raw emotional depth, and moments of humor and heart, this novel reminds us that healing isn't always clean or linear-but it's always possible.
Ideal for readers who love stories of underdogs, veterinary fiction, Indigenous heroines, and redemptive journeys.
