Book Description
Excerpt from The Lord Protector A long, shrill whistle rang through the woods. It was not loud, but penetrating, and went far into the forest, sliding past oak and beech, until it lost itself in still, dark deeps of green foliage and thick undergrowth. For a moment the blackbird ceased his song; the brown squirrel lay flat against the mottled chest nut bough, whereon he was frisking, and the fox, already afoot and ready to take the road, crouched low in his cover, with ears laid back, and but for the faint flick of his brush, seemed no more than a boulder.
