DESCRIPTION
“The Horseman” is Tim’s ninth novel and is the first in a trilogy. It follows the story of Leo, a 12 year old boy who lives on the Devon-Somerset border and whose family is employed on the local country estate. The novel describes in luminous detail the everyday life of the working-class men and women who support the estate – farm labourers, kitchen maids, stable boys. The detail is carefully and tenderly recounted, but there is a brutal sting in the tail.
