A London tycoon who wishes to run a rail line through it.
Political leaders with their own axes to grind.
Roger Oldfield is a third generation sheep farmer in one of the most beautiful valleys in the Yorkshire Dales. Devoted wife, Annie, teenage daughter, Lily, and autistic son, Danny, are all involved in a heroic battle against the tycoon's company, the neighbouring farmer, the local council, and powerful forces within London's political circles. Civil war looms.
Set between some of the wildest and most stunning scenery in Britain, and the heaving London metropolis, this epic story traces the clash of personalities, environmental interests, and ultimately the philosophies of twenty first century society, in a novel which is part family drama, part thriller, and part political intrigue.
“I know why people die for their land. I don’t mean die for their country. I mean die for their LAND. I’d die for my land. I’d die for a single acre of my land."
