A lusty tale of pre-war eugenics that cleverly pre-figures the historical horrors to come. * Independent * Mayhew can definitely write... with a richness and intelligence, and never a sense of showing-off... [A Wolf in Hindelheim has] a wide-reaching subject matter pinned down to a strong plot; and in every short chapter a sign that this is an author to watch. * The Bookbag *
