The Ballad of Seth and Eliza
by Adrian Edmondson· 2027
One rain-lashed night, Eliza, a fading folk music legend, strides out across the North York Moors with her life savings in a rucksack. She has a plan. But when she wakes the next morning, severely hungover, she can't remember what it was. Or where the gold is now.
Husband Seth is holding the family farm together. He's been at it for twenty years: looking after their three children, his ailing mother and the family's herd of goats, while absorbing whatever Eliza throws at him. But everybody's got a breaking point.
Throw in a long-lost sister, a best friend going off the rails and a feud with the village's dodgiest family - and Seth and Eliza have their hands full. It's possible the lost gold might save them. That is, if their own buried secrets don't sink them first.
The Ballad of Seth and Eliza is a family saga.
