A story of family jealousies, greed, travel and new-found love in England and France. George Waterstone, recently retired, is completing the inventory of a property of a deceased, one Jacob Armitage. During the compilation of the inventory George finds what he thinks are the deeds of a house in a small village in South West France, Puivert. There is some uncertainty as to whether this house actually exists, whether the deed is current, and also where it fits into the interpretation of the will.
Unravelling the intricacies of ownership leads to dispute amongst the family. Jealousy and greed raise their ugly heads and George sets out on a journey of discovery. This is Gordon Wallace's debut novel, inspired by time spent travelling through France and exploring its chequered history.
