The Grass memorial

Sarah Harrison

The leaping chalk horse, carved into an English hillside in the Bronze Age, stands witness to centuries of human endeavour.

To Stella, it represents home – sanctuary from the adrenalin-fuelled highs and corresponding lows of her career as a singer.  Stella is tough and talented, adored by every man in every audience but a loner in love.

Spencer McCall is an American ex-fighter pilot making a last, sentimental journey from Wyoming to the England of his mother’s childhood, and the white horse, to pay tribute to the past.

Harry Latimer sets off to the Crimea as a captain in the Hussars with a heart burdened by his undeclared love for his sister-in-law, Rachel.  The grim reality of the battlefield provides a bitter contrast to Harry’s memories of the tranquillity of home.

Stella, Spencer, Harry – each marches to the tune of a different drum.  Their stories are separated by many miles and generations, but profoundly connected in ways they can never fully understand.

Spine creased.  Wear to cover and corners.
