A touching story of Welsh village life.
Cockney born
Nelly Luke
is an essential part of the community. Yet not even Nelly, with her shrewd eye, can predict the surprises in store for her family and friends.
A new year brings new faces:
Maurice Davies
is back from the army, and
Sheila Powell
, a shop-girl, is eager to help him make up for lost time. But for some there's no escaping the past, and widow
Prue Beynon
finds herself confronted by a legacy she'd rather forget...
Through the seasons, Nelly watches over the valley with a wry chuckle and an ever-helping hand.
Valley Affairs
is a warm-hearted novel packed with nostalgia and glorious period detail.
