By Alix Nathan. In London, Mr Pike, an old friend of Tom Cranch, visits Eve. In Sowerthorpe, things are getting stranger by the day.

England is beset by social unrest and the threat of Napoleonic invasion. Parted following a freakish accident, Sarah Battle and her daughter Eve try to rediscover each other.

With her mother widely-believed to be dead, Eve is raised by Sarah鈥檚 erratic artist friend, Joseph in London. Sarah - traumatised in mind and body - must rebuild herself in a Norfolk fishing village at the parsonage of the strangely-motivated Reverend Snead.
