During the day, Jean-Thomas seems like any other young boy. But when night falls, his father locks him in a cabin. He is docile and resigned, but as darkness settles in, howls seep through the walls because Jean-Thomas is burdened by a terrible curse: he is a werewolf.
One evening, when his curious friends followed his father’s cart deep into the woods, the secret was uncovered, and in the ensuing confusion, Jean-Thomas fled into the night. Transformed into a wolf, he spread panic through the streets of Quebec City. Hot on his trail, his friends and his father tried to intercept him and throw off the police, who were soon alerted.
Finally found by his mother, who brought him back home, Jean-Thomas wakes up one morning for the first time in his own bedroom as a crowd gathers in front of the village butcher shop, which has been completely ransacked... Could he be responsible for such carnage? And where has his friend Maggie gone? Langelier, a renowned werewolf hunter, takes on the case. The hunt is on!
