MOTHER'S DAY SPECIALS! SHOW ME MORE
For five hundred years the Chandlers have been the leading lights of Bolton and of the village named after them, Chandlers Green. Heir of the respected candle-makers Richard Chandler, an alcoholic in denial, squanders their wealth. Chandler is a bully who abuses his own father and dominates his terrified wife. Their sons Jeremy and Peter are so cowed they show little initiative or passion but settle for the cruel family life they have always known. Only their sister Meredith has some of their father's force of character. But the real catalyst for change comes in the form of Alf Martindale the rag-and-bone man who moves his family into the exclusive village. Alf knows Chandler rather too well. As the families become entwined devastating secrets from the past and the present destabilise the mismanaged and damaged Chandler clan. This is a multi-stranded exciting tale that pulls the reader along. Hamilton has a flair for characterisation and through the dark moments the truth and courage of the Chandlers shines through.
