The Olive Season

£7.99

"The Olive Farm" told how Carol Drinkwater and partner Michel fell in love with and bought an abandoned Provencal olive farm. Here, in "The Olive Season, Carol is pregnant and their ever-loyal gardener is leaving to oversee the marriage of his son.

Often unassisted, and with new challenges to face, Carol takes on the bulk of the farm work alone. Water is, as ever, a costly problem, and she goes in search of a diviner who promises almost magical results.

But, as the harvest season approaches, dramatic events cast dark shadows of their olive farm.
