About this listen
During a brutal winter, a young woman longing for love finds more than she expected in the woods, in this wickedly sensuous short story by Silvia Moreno-Garcia, the New York Times bestselling author of Mexican Gothic.
Judith knows her sister, Alice, is the pretty one—but that doesn’t stop her from wishing for love. When a handsome and gentlemanly hunter appears in their village, seeking lodging from the cold, she believes her lover has finally arrived. He does, indeed, choose to stay—but as Alice’s husband, not her own. When another stranger comes out of the woods, looking every bit a vagrant, he offers Judith something mysterious and enticingly strange. Against reason and decency, she welcomes both men into her life, in different ways. As forbidden longings ensnare each of them, an unrelenting winter storm and an evasive wolf on the prowl have everyone on edge…and ravenous. By spring thaw, will any of their hungers be satisfied?

“Nina Yndis narrates a bewitching short story about a girl named Judith, who longs for adventure and romance in her quiet life.… Listeners hear the thrill in Judith's voice when a handsome stranger comes to her village—and her devastation when he marries her sister. Yndis captures the quiet menace in the voice of another stranger who arrives in town—one who doesn't have the hunter's charm but is mysteriously compelling.… Yndis's light Norwegian accent and engaging voice will draw listeners into this atmospheric tale.”—AudioFile Magazine
