79

An BBC Radio adaptation by Eric Pringle of Joan Aiken's classic children's novel.

In a 19th century England that never was, the country is overrun by packs of starving vicious wolves, and two young cousins, Sylvia and Bonnie Green, are now living in the grand old house of Willoughby Chase in the care of their governess Mrs. Letitia Slighcarp.

However, the danger from the wolves may be nothing compared to the danger the two cousins face from their evil and conniving governess, who will stop at nothing to get her hands on Sir Willoughby's fortune.
