About This Book

A family of young relatives inherits a neglected country estate and must decide how to manage it amid financial pressure and sentimental attachment. One sister's serious illness influences household choices and prompts frequent hospital visits and private conversations. The heirs explore the property, sparking debates over selling timber and other assets versus preserving the landscape, and they encounter neighboring residents whose presence affects plans. Arranged in two parts, the narrative moves from discovery and argument to increasingly practical engagement with gardens, lanes, and the work of restoring rural life.
