Councillor Amos Cotswold is targeted by a developer who reports him for pressurizing old folk. This accusation threatens his position and the villagers who depend on him.

| Synopsis: |
Suspected by his friends of killing an elderly lady, Councillor Amos Cotswold is targeted by a greedy developer who, seeking to discredit him, reports Amos for pressurizing old folk. This accusation threatens Amos' position and hence the villagers who depend on his protection.His plight is exacerbated by the painfully resurrected memory of a young woman who disappeared forty years ago, three attempts on his life, a run-in with organised car crime and an ambivalent relationship with the local gypsies. Now Amos is forced to discover the link. What this reveals makes a fascinating and gripping story. |
