A gentle loner and veteran of World War I, he lives in the hills, taking only what he needs from the land, bothering no one. One of those people to whom they offer quiet support is Toby. They're not well off but they don't struggle as much as some of the other families, and they're always quick to lend a helping hand. Annabelle's family is one of the luckier ones. It's a quiet country community that has seen the impact of two world wars and the Great Depression. Sensitively exploring the uncomfortable subjects of prejudice and injustice, it well and truly deserves the comparisons that are being made to Harper Lee's classic, To Kill a Mockingbird.Īnnabelle has lived in Wolf Hollow all her life. Wolf Hollow is Lauren Wolk's debut novel and it's a masterpiece.
