Shadow of the Wolf is an epic saga of a young man's desperate struggle with his people, his environment and himself. Agaguk is forced to reject his people when his father sells out his values and his own son for alcohol. Attempting to reclaim his possessions, Agaguk kills a trader and flees with his wife. Together in the hostile environment, they face the ferocity of the police, the savagery of wolves and bears, and the mystical powers of his father. Agaguk leads his wife to the top of the world where he finds he cannot escape his destiny. Determined to prove his father wrong, he returns to his village where the police are holding the entire camp hostage, and Agaguk must confront his enemies.
