'Ramblers. Daft sods in pink and green hats. It wasn't even cold. They moved down the field swing-swaying like a line of drunks, addled with the air and the land, and the smell of manure'
Recently expelled from school, Sam Marsdyke spends his days working the sheep on his father's farm and his nights up on the bleak Yorkshire moors, watching the steady invasion of daft ramblers and well-heeled 'towns', who are feverishly buying up the houses left empty by bankrupt farmers.
Then, one day, the fifteen year-old daughter of one of the smart new families catches his eye. Attracted by his gruff, sardonic wit and bruising turn of phrase, she strikes up an unlikely, touching friendship with him - one that will unhinge Sam's obsessive imagination and eventually lead to his macabre undoing.
