When a dead man washes up on shore, something unlocks in each of them, until Tomas's obsession with his Nagual, a werewolf-like creature in Aztec lore, brings them all to the brink and forces the real story out into the light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo imagine the world of Summer Fruit, author Renee Humphrey drew on her own full life that has connected her with many different challenges, opportunities, and real-life characters, as well as her extensive research into global narratives about wolves. This page-turner will capture anyone who wants to escape into a verdant, remote island world while exploring how human connection may be the only way we can truly heal and save ourselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCover Art (c) 2025 Valerie Savarie.
