Synopsis

DARK WOODS Jim Cambers examined the “presents” his son had brought home, among them a two-headed snake and a Monarch butterfly with a double set of wings. He had never seen anything like them, and he used to teach biology. Yet Chip claimed there were plenty more just like them out in the woods. What could be causing such mutations in their idyllic little community? And did he even want to find out? DARK SECRET At first 14-year-old Chip was thrilled with the new additions to his insect collection. But it was one thing to find mutant insects, and quite another to run across six-legged raccoons and wolves with two snarling heads. And then there were the people of Brixton. They were strange, secretive, vulnerable to mysterious ailments… And they did not look kindly on a young boy with more curiosity than was good for him…
