Green Twining - Andrew Cheffings - Bog

19-year-old Joe Coffin lives at Green Twining Farm, a place of bad memories and angry ghosts, which block his every move. His workmate, David, at Scawthorpe Town Hall, has a past which isn't what it seems, but if it became known to the wrong people could destroy what little standing in the town he still has. When an unpredictably odd friend of a friend comes to stay at the farm, bringing with him his own troubling, half-remembered past, the world of Green Twining and David's world in Scawthorpe are - by degrees - turned upside down, opening new ways forward, but also bringing potential danger, for both David and Joe. But Green Twining hides an unlikely hero, with acquaintances in surprising places, who might just turn everything around. The San Francisco of Tales of the City, transposed to the hinterland of the river Humber, meets Cold Comfort Farm, with a dash of Seven Bridegrooms for Seven Brothers, in this tale of multiple rural romances from the author of Muddy Lane.
