Ex-miner Jack Williams and his ailing wife Hilda welcome their only son Harry back home from Nix City to their 1970s pit village in Durham's Wear Valley. But Harry brings with him a strange fiancée from another world: a groubian called Tvoul Rainbow. And a fifty-thousand year-old longing is all set to be fulfilled... bringing ruin on everyone concerned.
A sinister wedding guest from Nix City warns Jack his son is in dire peril. The tidings strike down Hilda, catapulting Jack on a fearful quest across world after world to uncover the heart-breaking truth of Harry's star-crossed romance.
Is Jack the resolute hero, seeking redress for his lost wife and son? Or a deluded invalid, in thrall to bitter prejudice, the catspaw of shady interests whose motives he will never comprehend? And is redress to take the form of justice... or heedless revenge?
