The Reid and The Radley families have lived cheek by jowl under the silent shadow of the Monolith for over two hundred years in the Yorkshire Dales, but now things are about to change.
David Reid has returned to his home at Ellenby to find the farm run down and neglected and with his cantankerous father’s health failing, but is determined to put things right, no matter what the cost.
The Radley fortunes are also waning and in desperate need of financial rescue, but where the banks are reluctant to step in, David Reid has no such qualms. He has big plans; ideas that will change Ellenby and Kirkley forever, but a car crash has far reaching implications on not only his life, but all life in the sleepy Dales villages…and the Monolith remains implacably silent as the drama unfolds beneath it.
