In which a community joins hands against unfathomable powers; and two cunning women receive unwelcome offers.

In which a problem is not so much solved as displaced; the village green is vandalised; and Percy leverages her reputation.

In which the occupation of Sherrydown expands; archaeological fraud is mooted; and hounds and ravens make their voices heard.

In which a threat is named; a girl ignores a warning from her elders; and Gwynned (among others) is made to feel unwelcome.
