Marlford
Ellie Barton has spent her young life living in the dilapidated manor house with her elderly father. Her duty is to her aristocratic lineage, something of which she is often reminded by those few people around her. But Marlford, the local village founded by her grandfather, is in decay – subsidence from the old salt mines is destroying the buildings, the books in the memorial library are mouldering, and old loyalties and assumptions are shifting. When two idealistic young men decide to squat in the closed wing of the house, they show her a world much wider than Marlford, and Ellie begins to feel trapped beneath the unbearable weight of history and expectation.

Kissing Alice
Arthur Craythorne has barely married Queenie May when he is called away to fight in the First World War; when he returns from the trenches, he is a changed man. He struggles to contain the violent flashes of anger he confuses with love; and his two young daughters, Florrie and Alice, strive hard to please the stranger who calls himself their father…
A moving tale of family, love and loss set against the unfolding of twentieth century English life, Kissing Alice was shortlisted for the 2010 McKitterick Prize and singled out by the judges of the Orange Award for New Writers on account of ‘its compelling story and fine prose’.
The dark and disturbing story of a family in which the ties of love and hate, fear and jealousy, innocence and experience, have all become dangerously confused, Kissing Alice is a ‘remarkable first novel’.
