A spellbinding story to rival Watership Down or Duncton Wood, The Second Wave is packed full of adventure, intrigue and heroism in this triumphant follow up to Michael Tod’s first book, The Silver Tide. The Red squirrels are at risk. A pine marten is at large, bringing fear into the heart of every squirrel. But there is a more subtle and dangerous threat – from one of their own kind. Crag the Zealot has brought his family from the Isle of Portland to promote his loveless creed. His harsh ideas are bewildering to the friendly and peace-loving Reds he encounters, but Crag finds converts in a newly arrived group of Grey squirrels. And the consequences are disastrous for Reds and Greys alike...
