Digging Deep

Based in the North of England the story is a portrayal of a farming family together with the integrated way of village life in the 1930's into the 1940's.

It tells the tale of two brothers at constant loggerheads with each other in a hate filled relationship.

Their nephew in his youth becomes unwittingly embroiled in an act of deceit, involved with betting on race horses; with intent at revenge for a misdemeanor perpetuated by a devious member of the village community.

Heartache outweighs jubilation by the narrowest of margins. Ordinary people doing what the working class does best, digging deep into the mire of dispute, love, greed, lust and lies.

A tragedy strikes at the vicarage, a love story tangled in despair.

Easy reading thoroughly enjoyable and compulsive.
