Publisher's Synopsis
HILL FARM tells the story of what appears to be an ordinary farming family living in a perfect village in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It feels like a place that will never change. Its farmhouse is crumbling and the same bric-a-brac has been circulating the village jumble sales for decades. But change does come, that summer. It comes in different guises: a handsome farm hand, a deathwatch beetle, a scented bosom, a lost hedgerow, a disused water tank. But finally it comes after an explosive argument in the tractor shed - and nothing will ever be the same again...
