From the back cover: Set in the green and ancient landscape in and around Glastonbury, The Heart of the Country sparkles with black enchantment, insight and outrage. Abandoned by her husband, pretty, vapid (and adulterous) Natalie is left with two children and a mountain of debts. Her subsequent discovery of a new and unwelcome world (in which star the nightmare figures of welfare officers, bank managers and DHSS officials) leaves her a target for every passing male (there are plenty of cruising, predatory males in Glastonbury) and at the mercy of Sonia, tough, bitter, adept at surviving - and mad.
