Summaries

Young folksinger and mild-mannered pacifist Herbert Meakin, finds himself torn from a peaceful life and dropped in the midst of a guerrilla war. Entrenched deep in the woods and faced with the constant threat of an unseen enemy garrisoned in a nearby town, the bewildered Meakin is forced into an unnerving bond with a group of stir-crazy soldiers. After a string of silent killings escalate camp hysteria, the erratic Major Parradocks initiates his 'master plan': to encircle their camp with a defensive twig alarm system in preparation for further aggression. As the camp prepares for the inevitable onslaught, their already brittle sanity is worryingly strained and Meakin is left with a big decision: stay and spend his final days fighting alongside this band of maniacal comrades or escape and risk leaving behind his last realistic chance of getting home.—James Butler

After being drugged and kidnapped, a mild-mannered folk singer must escape his enforced new home, a dank wood, by fighting alongside a battalion of maniacal comrades in an absurd guerrilla war. As the death toll rises, he is forced to face his fears and find the answers to his salvation.—James Butler
