Berwick

BOOK DESCRIPTION Berwick is an engrossing tale about the fluctuating fortunes of three families who live in the border town of Berwick upon Tweed. They experience everything from wealth and prosperity to abject poverty, rape and murder. Woven into the tale is the modern day story a boy born into one of the families who endures extreme adversity, narrowly avoiding death on several occasions. The saga sweeps from Berwick upon Tweed’s founding fifteen hundred years before, through the many times that it has been captured and sacked during the near incessant wars between England and Scotland, to the present day. Finally, the centuries old vendettas are resolved in a dramatic climax. Previously published under the title THE SINS OF THE FATHERS
