Paul and Solley are London-based property developers and in Moorland Blue, a novel by Charlie Gibb's, receive some details about the go-ahead for an extension to the HS2 railway line to Leeds.
They discover that there is a nearby property for sale which would be perfect for converting into luxury apartments.
They head to Yorkshire in an attempt to buy the property, but they are unaware that things are not quite what they seem.
When they arrive in Yorkshire they suddenly become entangled in a situation where bribery, double crossing and blackmail are the order of the day, with several other groups desperate to buy the property.
Why? What is so special about the property? And exactly how far will some of the groups go in order to make certain that they will become the owners of the property?
And how will the outsiders, Paul and Solley, fair against their northern rivals? Will they ultimately triumph? And if so, how?
This is a very well-crafted first novel. Hopefully it'll be the first of many from Chsrlie Gibb.
It's published by The Book Guild at £9.99
