Publisher's Summary
Arthur and Jake are the sons of a farmer in the mid-1930s, when life is tough and another world war is looming. Arthur is solid and dutiful, set to inherit the farm and his father's character; Jake is younger, attractive, mercurial and dangerous to know. A young woman, Laura, comes into the community and tips the fragile balance of sibling rivalry over the edge... And then there is Ian, son of the local doctor, thoughtful, idealistic, and far too sure that he knows the difference between right and wrong. By now it is the 50s, and the world has changed - a little, but not enough...

Fantastic!
This book reminds me of a Steinbeck novel, the characters have depth and complexity and the author has gone to some trouble to be historically accurate. WWII is woven in with the very real, personal cost for those involved. I looked forward to hearing more - the narration is superb!
