This is actually quite a fascinating tale that illustrates just how much we take on face value. It's a story of a woman who claimed to have escaped from the Nazis at the end of WWII, with the help of some wild wolves. She makes it safely to the USA whereupon a local radio station and subsequently a local publisher encourage her to tell her heart-rending story. A few fallings-out and court hearings later, though, we discover that things might not be quite what they said on the tin... Sam Hobkinson has weaved this mix of fact and drama well, with a slowly evolving narrative that is not without it's twists and turns, as we endeavour to get to the bottom of this really quite intriguing chronicle. It is well worth a watch if it comes your way - it is unlikely to end as you might expect.
