About this listen

 A powerfully life-affirming story of the wonder of nature, the ties of family, and the healing power of love from bestselling novelist and national treasure Alan Titchmarsh

***

An ordinary life. An extraordinary choice.

Adam Gabriel has always been a child of nature. Raised on his parents' remote Yorkshire farm, where life is measured by the rhythms of the flock, the turn of the seasons, and the yearly arrival of an itinerant local monk, he seems destined for a quietly contented life.

As Adam grows, Luke and Bethany see flickers of something extraordinary in their son - a healing touch that goes beyond his love for the land. But Adam's gentleness has always made him an outsider, and a powerful gift can also be a heavy burden...

When tragedy turns the Gabriels' life upside down, Adam faces a stark choice. Can he keep faith in his talents, even if it means risking the suspicion of others? Should he listen to the lure of new horizons, or does happiness lie closer to home? And when he needs it most, can he find the strength to save the people he loves?

This work is typical of the wonderful descriptive nature of the writer/orator, who paints beautiful pictures in my mind with words. I’ve giggled and laughed out loud plus cried with joy and sorrow as the story unfolded. The expressions so moving, I could feel the emotion of each character fully. Thank you so much Mr T for turning this book into an audible one with the bonus of your voice. I’ve had to give my books away because of advanced glaucoma and this has been such a pleasure to listen to. Ta!

Yorkshire portrayed with all the realities of life.
