Description

In the long hot summer of 1976, a group of young people are camping in Wyvis Hall. Adam, Rufus, Shiva, Vivien and Zosie hardly ask why they are there, what they are doing or how they are to live; they scavenge, steal and sell the family heirlooms. In short, they exist. Ten years later, the bodies of a woman and a child are discovered in the Hall's animal cemetery. Which woman? Whose child?

Dark, trecherous, and entrancing in it's evocation of a season in the lives of a rather amoral group of young adults (British) ... and the repercussions, some years distant from their 'golden' summer.
