''A true literary masterpiece. Martha Hunt Handler takes us on an edge-of-your-seat thriller. We find ourselves arriving at the collision course between perceptions we've long held and deeper beliefs we've long ignored. While taking us on a journey of unfathomable pain, she asks us to ponder both the spiritual world around us and our interconnectedness to all souls who share the planet with us. You'll be awakened to the idea that the light that shines within us is too bright to ever be extinguished.''

-Wendy Diamond, best-selling author, TV personality, animal advocate, and founder of Women's Entrepreneurship Day

''All great books open our minds, broaden our visions, and strengthen our convictions, and Martha Hunt Handler's Winter of the Wolf does all three brilliantly. Much like a wolf, 15-year-old Bean follows her intuition, desperate and determined to prove her beloved brother did not choose to end his life. As readers follow her emotional and spiritual journey, they will, undoubtedly, begin to question their own beliefs about life and death and the interconnectedness of all spiritual beings. A breathtaking read from start to finish.''

-Hélène Grimaud, founder of the Wolf Conservation Center, world-renowned musical artist, writer, and human rights activist

''Handler takes us deep inside one family's tragedy and shows us how our spiritual beliefs can guide us at our deepest moments of grief. As we travel with fifteen-year-old Bean through the loss of her beloved brother Sam, we see how friendship, trust, and deeply held beliefs help her navigate the painful aftermath of his death. In a mystery that races forward, Handler shows us the power of sibling love to endure forever.''
