A passionate journey through the final days of a tempestuous marriage and a vivid portrait of life in a Midlands mining village.
Miner’s wife Lizzi Holroyd is just about at the end of her tether. Trapped in a loveless marriage to the boozing violent Charles. Fearful for her children, worn out with work and worry, part of her wishes her husband was dead.
