<p>'Joyce Stranger brings the smell of the hedgerow and the sharp cry of the fox in the night to her vividly written tale of the wild creatures she loves.' - EVENING NEWS.  In this magical tale of the Lakeland Fells, dour farmers who hunt on foot are outwitted and outrun by a vixen and her cubs.  Well taught by the vixen, Rufus and Rusty become legends throughout one autumn and winter around Hortonmere.  The swiftest hounds, the most determined terriers and the most patient of huntsmen cannot match their speed and guile, and to lonely old Jasper, as he lies snug in his bed on a frosty night, there comes a feeling of contentment as he hears the joyous barks of the pair running free.</p>

Yet he feels no fear. Famy is prepared to sacrifice himself for his cause, for if he succeeds he knows that the reverberations will be felt throughout the Western World.But when his hit squad is intercepted by Israeli Intelligence in France and his accomplices are shot, Famy remains determined that this setback will only be temporary in spite of his lack of experience. Upon arrival in Britain, his only contact is Ciaran McCoy, a hardened IRA mercenary. McCoy can provide him with firearms and local knowledge, but the difference in their aims and motivations means that their alliance will always be uneasy. Meanwhile, British Intelligence has assigned a hard-drinking maverick to protect the scientist. Will this be enough to prevent the inevitable bloodshed?Reissued with a fantastic new cover in the same style as The Killing Ground and The Waiting Time.
