The tale is set principally among the hills of the English Lakes by
the fictional lake of Timemere. The imaginary village of
Thatchcroft on its shore and the equally fictional market town of
Constanton a few miles downriver from the Lake. A former sea farer,
Will, now owns Grilsethwaite, an estate on the lakeside.
Will is summoned from the church one Sunday morning to deal with
an incident of deer poaching. The first of several criminal acts to
disturb to countryside they were to gradually increase through
theft and violence to murder.
That first Sunday afternoon Will calls at the village shop and
decides to call at Candides newly open Art Gallery opposite and
wish her luck inspite of their casual acquaintanceship...
Candide was restoring a picture involving nude figures when Will
arrived. Posing for her work becomes intimate and they make love...
The developing of their relationship against the background of
growing criminal activity along with the issue of preserving the
value of the natural countryside against the profits to be made
from expanding tourism, agricultural life, sailing, fishing, pony
tracking and shooting flows throughout.
Culminating in the justification of the plans that Will and his
friends and employees had made to deal with the criminal threat.
