Following the mysterious disappearance of her husband, Dorothy
Gibbons, affectionately known as Lady Pink Hat, trudges the lanes
around Drumford, homeless and directionless. Alone she rolls a
dice, reflecting on her life, times both painful and pleasant. She
stumbles upon The Grange, an old disused Georgian farmhouse, and
this changes the course of her fortune, although even this is not
without conflict and drama. She finds an old social history book of
her temporary refuge, but the sound of swinging from the rafters
above her makeshift bed disturbs Dorothy and her imagination stirs
her to write. Millie, an 18th Century aspirant nun, runs away from
The Grange. Dorothy tells of her protagonist's adventures and
tragedies, some parallel to her own. It is Jamal, a Syrian refugee
and asylum seeker, whom Dorothy fosters until leaving school, who
is driven to solve the mysteries. He and his brother settle in a
nearby flat until the misguided Ahmed also disappears. With three
missing people in his life, Dorothy, Gerald her husband and Ahmed,
Jamal is determined to discover the truth? Is Millie also still
haunting The Grange until her story is told?
