They are a family steeped in strange occurrences and ghostly happenings in Yorkshire for generations. The Countess of Feversham, born into an atmosphere in which the chase and stories of the unknown were constantly daily features, has brought the two together in an excellent collection of nineteen stories, collected from friends and relations, which are bound to cast that cold shiver down the spine. The connection between foxes and the mysterious forces of the unknown has long been common knowledge among hunting people - but few of those who do not hunt will be familiar with this phenomenon. As dusk falls and firelight plays across the ceiling, you may still hear the ghostly sound of hounds in full cry, as you read these excellent tales.
