Lily the Tiller

Lily the Tiller is a nomadic gardener on the permanent lam from a bleak, abusive past. Scouring the lanes of South West England looking for temporary work, she pitches up at Motthoe, a now dilapidated, but once grand, country estate, where Dreamer Harry - Motthoe-s reluctant owner via recent inheritance - falls for her with only the slimmest hopes of reciprocation. In Lily-s care, a walled garden at Motthoe begins to blossom and the greening magic of this new life touches each of Motthoe-s cast of idiosyncratic inhabitants. But, even in the midst of this community blossoming, dark hints and ill-omens suggest Lily-s grim history can be run from no longer.
