I'm looking for an anthology of short horror or fantasy-like stories, I believe it was by a female author, with this one particular story (titled The Master, I think) about someone who gets called out into the woods in the middle of the night to investigate a woman who's had her throat torn out. They follow a trail to this cottage with a strange man who won't give any straight answers about who he is, but the main character can tell something is off about him and suspects the man might be involved with the dead woman. There's also magic involved somehow? My memory is pretty hazy in the middle part of the story, but I'm pretty sure at the end the main character dies, then wakes up to the same phone call as in the beginning. I can't remember the author's name or the name of the book, and searching for short stories titled The Master (might not even be the title) didn't seem to help, so this is my last hope!
