Adventure-seeking apothecary Penhaligon (The Daring Adventures of Penhaligon Brush), a clever fox, must find a cure for deadly wolf fever. While his wife Rowan cares for the ill, Penhaligon seeks the cure's mysterious ingredients and learns more about his own past. Though the text occasionally meanders, the plot is more streamlined than the previous volume's, and new characters add depth.

The elaborate machinations of a spoiled feline royal put the village of Porthleven in peril. Fox Penhaligon, a local apothecary, comes to the rescue with help from the lady of the manor, her devoted servant, and assorted villagers. Too many subplots slow down the action, and tying them all up makes the story less convincing.
