For decades the lives of the Price family have been snarled with the fate of the ancient forest of Goodmanswood. There, Dr. Lennox Price discovered an hallucinogenic moss which quickly became the focus of a cult. Though the moss is long gone, the whole forest can now affect the minds of visitors. After Lennox is killed trying to return to his beloved wood, his widow sees and hears him in the trees-or is it a dark version of the Green Man that caresses her with leafy hands? Lennox"s grandson heeds a call to lie in his lover"s arms in the very heart of the forest-and cannot help but wonder what the fruit of that love will be. And Heather, Lennox"s daughter, who turned her back on her father"s mysteries and sought sanctuary in the world of facts and history? Goodmanswood summons her as well . . .
