About This Book

Here, the next four hundred years of Furnance Green begins, with a tale of secret bastardy and the violence of the Civil War – with the terror of the all-powerful smuggling gangs who held a county in craven fear.

It tells of Liddy, who worked and plotted and schemed her way out of nineteenth century poverty, and threw it all away to fulfil an old love.

The times change. The people remain the same, and are linked when John Smith, descendant of all who came before, flies above the village in 1940 to save the nation forged through nineteenth centuries of epic history.
