When the sun sets over Western Britain, another set of animals wakes and takes the fields. Rees writes their sketches with a storyteller's eye, following the badgers, owls, foxes, and moths of the Welsh countryside through the dark hours. Country life after nightfall, warmly and closely observed. Meet the neighbors that only come out at night.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
