|title=Chicken Mission: The Curse of Fogsham Farm
|rating=4.5
|genre=Confident Readers
|summary=Life is hard for a chicken. Threat comes from anywhere you look – which is where the Elite Chicken Squad comes in. [[Chicken Mission: Danger in the Deep Dark Woods by Jennifer Gray|Last time]] they had a nasty fox and his friends to counter, but this time they've got it worse. A local legend speaks of a vampire mink, concerned only with draining all fowl of their blood, and all indications suggest the legend is actually a lot more real and worrying. Even the barman – sorry, bar-chicken, Ichabod Comb, has vanished after an attack on his juice bar. What's more, it seems the mink's victim becomes a zombie soldier, fighting for her cause. Can the three plucky stalwarts of the Squad – Amy, Boo and Ruth – prove themselves a match for such evil?

It hadn't been easy to persuade his editor to fund the trip, but when Strachan found himself at the door of Roslyn's home at the appointed time there seemed to be no one there. When he tried the door he walked in only to find Lovgren dead on the floor.
