The Beast of Dole
A Haunting Tale of Love, Madness, and the Hunger That Consumed a Man
In the shadowy forests of 16th-century France, hunger gnawed at more than just the body—it tore through the mind and soul. Gilles Garnier, a reclusive man desperate to feed his new wife, is slowly consumed by a darkness no one can explain. When children begin vanishing from nearby villages, whispers of a werewolf rise—and all eyes turn to the lonely woodsman at the edge of town.
But was Gilles truly a monster... or just a man driven beyond the brink?
Based on chilling true events, The Beast of Dole is a deeply human and suspenseful retelling of one of history's most disturbing legends. Rich with gothic atmosphere and psychological tension, this story explores the thin line between survival and savagery, love and madness.
Perfect for fans of historical thrillers and dark folklore, this book will leave you questioning who the real beast truly is.
