Heerlijk vierde deel in de Woodville serie. Terug bij Faye en Bertie, Mrs. Teach en Miss Charlotte. Deze keer wordt het dorp aangevallen door the Holly King, een van de twee broers die afwisselend heersen over een half jaar. Maar the Holly King is boos. Hij is al eeuwen niet gezien en nu komt hij terug om te merken dat zijn woud is verdwenen en dat er nu een dorp in de plaats is gekomen. Dat kan hij niet tolereren en hij roept de bomen op om hun terrein terug te nemen. Daardoor wordt het dorp bedreigd. Het is aan Faye om dit op te lossen. ( )
