A Book at Bedtime The Heir

on BBC Radio 4 FM

by V. SACKVILLE-WEST abridged by ELISABETH ROWLEY Read by Carleton Hobbs
For 500 years his aunt's family had been Lords of the Manor of Blackboys. Now he was sole heir. He owned the Elizabethan manor house, the farms, the cottages. the park, the gardens, the peacocks on the lawn. All this mortgaged beauty. All this debt. And he had to make the most vital, the most agonising decision of his life.
