“I’m not sure if it’s the government, or the f#%ers we buy oil from who are actually in charge of this country”.
The cost of living is higher than ever and the divide between rural and urban communities is stark. Heather, Holly and their mum Angela, a close-knit family from Devon struggle to run a rural petrol station. And when Holly finally returns home from the city, she discovers a shattered version of the village she left behind…
Kindle is a captivating piece of new writing exploring modern rural community, climate change, and the impacts of the ever rising cost of living.
