Critiques en avant-premièreDavid Beeley

And the seagull sadly mewled its mournful cry.

In the final part of the Wath Mills allotments trilogy we meet old and new friends including Nora Noodle whose life is a cheerful struggle against poverty and adversity. She finds a first, tender and gentle love with a quiet Polish boy.

Newhill school's residential trip to Yorkshire is an impossible dream for Nora but a broken leg and code 604 intervene.

Nora's teacher, Daisy Morgan, is enduring a cold marriage and takes refuge with Phil her mentor, a black American with Sioux ancestry, and a mysterious shadow wife.

Clovermount is a dramatic setting for criminal gangs, ghosts, allegations of child abuse, kidnapping, and an escaped prisoner intent on revenge.

It is a time of joy, of young love, humour, divorce, and new beginnings. It is a time of hope, a time of death and deep sadness.

Wath Mill Allotments in the Derbyshire town of Newhill are under threat from a housing development. Plot holders must unite to save their tranquil haven, but each have their own dark secrets, conflicts and fears protected by lies. The issue is resolved in an unexpected fashion but not before lives are dramatically changed and not always for the better.

It is a year of hope, redemption, and deep everlasting love. It is a year of a birth, marriage, two deaths, treasure and rhubarb pies.

Can the intrigues of election for chair produce a leader capable of overcoming the threat to Wath Mill?

William Mullins, the recently widowed elder statesman must use all his skills, experience, and gentle humour to resolve issues. However, the arrival of William’s long term secret love, offers complications of the best and worst kind. And he continues to be haunted by an old photograph.
