Overview
Lucy Catchpole is a brilliant mathematician who takes a job in the City of London with a financial brokerage. She has devised a means of predicting stock movements. She knows with certainty how to make money on the money markets. Her boss, Alex Lightowler, is a ruthless, arrogant and misogynistic man who wants Lucy for himself. Eventually Lucy tires of the narrow, self-absorbed world of middle-class London and returns to her roots in the North of England. She marries a local man, George Atkinson, who is a plumber by trade and a pillar of the local community and Church. They had met by accident but were meant for each other. Her former London boss is not finished his dealings with Lucy and he follows her to her new home. Rape and murder follow this encounter and none of the parties involved is unmoved or unchanged by what happens.
