Dark Horse

Dark Horse tells the story of Londoner Abigail Daycock, a fashion graduate drifting through her twenties in a stream of temping roles whilst waiting for the wealthy man of her dreams to enter her life. After making an innocent computer error that brings down the banking system, Abigail is forced to go on the run from the police with nothing but a tent and a handful of cash to survive on. She hides in the sleepy Gloucestershire hamlet of Sloth, where she meets a cast of characters that teach her reciprocity, thrift and the need to take control of her own destiny. "A thoroughly enjoyable read - fun, witty and engaging"
