Synopsis

Houses represent money. not homes.' The Nuthall Road neighbourhood is an unkempt blot on the riverbanks of a rural English enclave, populated by a motley crew of classless families, misfits and racketeers. For Cassius Priest, the neighbourhood presents a rare opportunity for redevelopment; an Arcadian ideal of a setting in an increasingly urbanised world. An honest man in a dishonest market, Priest's good intentions bring him into conflict with a collection of opportunists, rogue traders and a cast of Machiavellian professional rivals. This, along with a number of unforeseen and sometimes grisly factors, paves the way to disaster. They say an Englishman's home is his castle; and The Road to Riches demonstrates that it would take a royal ransom to shift him from his turrets.
