Publisher's Synopsis
An Arnold Landon mystery. Two people are keen that a bypass should not destroy the ancient woodland known as Pentire Woods. One is an archaeologist anxious to explore the wood's peat bog, after the discovery of the perfectly preserved "Wolf Man". The other is the landowner who just wants his woods left alone. Brought in to assess the archaeological worth of the site, Arnold Landon and his colleague Portia have to walk a tightrope between developers, politicians and eco protesters. When one of the protesters is found dead, Arnold finds himself dealing not with a land dispute, but with a murder...
