Secret of the Woods is a classic nature/wildlife study by William J. Long that examines the lives of woodland creatures such as mouse, otter, kingfisher, red squirrel, partridge, deer, and many others. We would not feel comfortable if a big barbarian came into our quiet home, broke the door down, whacked his war-club on the furniture, and whooped his battle yell. We could hardly be natural under the circumstances. Our true dispositions would hide themselves. We might even vacate the house bodily. Just so Wood Folk. Only as you copy their ways can you expect to share their life and their secrets.

As the chilling cries grew louder, they fled. They burst sobbing from the haunted thicket and ran on till the cries of the phantom infants faded and they could run no more. Something's going on in Weeping Wood. There's an awful sound coming from deep in the woods, like ghostly babies crying. Time for The Outfit to investigate. But they'd better watch out. Because they're not the only people interested in Weeping Wood.... The Outfit series launches with four titles in July: The Secret of Weeping Wood, We Didn't Mean To, Honest, Kidnap at Denton Farm, and The Ghosts of Givenham Keep.
