The author, a journalist, revisits his roots in the East Midlands and a village which was once the heart of a flourishing coal mining industry. He uncovers the story of Godkin, a dilapidated country house with a tenanted farm where two spinsters, Victoria, the landowner, and Lottie, her servant, eke out a frugal living. However, the estate had a hidden treasure, and the lives of the two women are changed by an extraordinary windfall. This would change their lives and that of the local community in an unimaginable way. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге The Ha-Ha (W R Marrin)
