When woodland creatures spot Marlfoxes leading a large company of water rats along the river, they gather at Redwall Abbey to mount a defense. In the meantime, two young squirrels and a Guosim shrew, who believe they failed their friends during a crucial battle, set off to recover the stolen tapestry of Martin the Warrior. The rousing tale will please avid fans as well as readers new to the series.
