Bloodhound

When a piece of shrapnel steals Luke Corrigan’s sense of smell on the field of battle during World War II, he is sent back home on a disabled ticket. Once there, however, a series of events reverses the effect, and then some. All he can do now is find a place to live away from most people where his abnormally sharp sense of smell won’t debilitate him. But on Mrs. MacNeil’s farm, he discovers that this newfound power is far from a disability…
