Abstract
Hemlock Grove, home of the defunct Godfrey Steel Company, is now a middle-class, paranormal Pittsburgh suburb. When a girl's body is found murdered in the woods, suspects include: an escapee from the White Tower, a local biotech company dedicated to peculiar research; Peter Rumancek, a wacky, new-to-town, suspicious son of Gypsies; Roman Godfrey, the patrician scion of a wealthy steel family; and werewolves brought in by Slavic steelworkers a century ago.
