Those Who Lie Beneath

Alex is a large brutish looking young man but belies his appearance by being a gentle soul who wants nothing more than to follow in his father’s footsteps. This dream however becomes somewhat threatened by a new arrival into his widowed father’s life, a wife. Alex accepts the situation with good grace and in time finds himself a partner with whom he hopes to have a family who will inherit his father’s business when he retires. However, his life is suddenly thrown into turmoil and releases an anger in him which he did not imagine he possessed. In an attempt to escape from the anguish, he dedicates himself to creating a beautiful home for himself and his partner Pat, in a cottage far from the memories he has left behind. The love he feels for this cottage, bordering on obsessive, leads him to make decisions which will affect the rest of his life and all who know him.
