At short notice Gerald Burleigh Brown is asked to take a deer-stalking holiday in place of his brother-in-law. The old hunting lodge where Gerald stays is miles from the nearest village and surrounded by the forest with its high rocky hills.
Apart from getting to know the other people in the house party, Gerald gradually begins to understand and make friends with the local inhabitants.
