Frederick Marryat’s The White Wolf of the Hartz Mountains is a unique literary work that stands out amidst the body of work of an author best known for pioneering the genre of the sea story. Excised from Marryat’s novel The Phantom Ship (1839) and published separately as The White Wolf it represents the first appearance of a female werewolf in Victorian literature. Krantz, a fugitive from justice, takes refuge in the Hartz mountains with his three children and lives by hunting in the forest and subsistence farming.

In den verschneiten Berges des Harzes ist das Leben kein Zuckerschlecken. Gefahren drohen nicht allein von der Kälte und der Einsamkeit, sondern auch von den Wölfen, die sich zu Rudeln formieren und die verstreut wohnenden Menschen in Angst und Schrecken versetzen.
