    About this ebook

    Gail Hollyworth has lost her wedding ring. Her husband won't take too kindly to that, particularly because she probably left it in the bedroom of Highgate's handsome leather worker, Thom. Damndest thing, though - she doesn't remember taking it off while she was with him. Alicanto is the fifth story in the Bestiary Tales.
