George Elkin has loyally trained as a solicitor in order to run the family firm. But when his father dies, George resolves to follow his heart instead, taking on the family's farm. With the help of his neighbors Prodge and Nell, George is sure he can adapt. Nell has kept her feelings for George hidden, and has long hoped that their friendship would develop into something stronger. But then Lily, George's university friend, comes to stay and it seems that Nell's hopes will remain unfulfilled. All the while, the rural community is facing a number of threats: BSE, foot and mouth, government proposals on hunting - each crisis straining farmers to breaking point. And George and Prodge are faced with the awful knowledge that their future is out of their hands...
