The Black Fox

A neglected twentieth-century classic, chilling and literary, returning to print for the first time since the 1950s. Heard was a fascinating author of genre fiction, speculative works on the existence of flying saucers, and influential tracts on philosophical enlightenment. Deserving of more recognition, The Black Fox takes the antiquarian influence of M. R. James, but with a modern sensibility, where the Christian church meets the pagan gods of distant cultures.
