The first novels in Janet Tanner s

Hillsbridge trilogy--the sparkling and

well-received The Hours of Light and The

Emerald Valley--introduced the Hall

family, the children and grandchildren

of the indomitable Charlotte Hall. The

Hills and the Valley brings the saga to a

compelling conclusion.

It is 1939, and as the shadow of war

is falling across Britain, the people of

Hillsbridge anxiously await their future,

and move to confront it.

For Harry, who had long sworn to win

justice for those oppressed by the greed

of the coal owners, there will be the

chance to bring to the struggle more

power than he had ever imagined.

For Alec, the grandson who has

stayed closest to his roots, there will be a

heartbreaking decision--followed by

the stark horror of war in the East.

But for Barbara there is another

shadow that threatens to block the sun
