Omtale fra Den Norske Bokdatabasen

It is 1946, and the eve of the harshest winter for a hundred years. Servicemen are pouring home from the war to a Britain beset by stringent food and fuel shortages, and a desperate housing crisis. Anxieties are heightened by the unexpected arrival of the soldiers of the Second Polish Corps, whose refusal to go back to Poland is regarded with impatience and suspicion. Billy Greer has no intention of returning to his parochial life on the Somerset wetlands. But he stays long enough to get his uncle's neglected willow farm up and running again. As anti-Polish propaganda reaches its height, he agrees to take on a labourer from the nearby Polish resettlement camp, a young veteran named Wladyslaw Malinowski. Then a death occurs on the wetlands, and it seems Wladyslaw, the outsider, will be held responsible.
