Synopsis:

All the Little Emptiness is a deeply involving, bitter-sweet story set against an authentic background and vitalised with people and events that illuminate every page. Burdened by a sorrow that darkens his soul, Matthew Gerrard returns to England after long years abroad to seek renewal and solace in the place of his birth. But instead of peace he finds doomed love, conflict, and danger that threatens to destroy him. By chance he again encounters Miriam, the childhood sweetheart who bears her own secret anguish, and together they are drawn into a struggle to save the town where they were raised and the haunting Cheshire marshes where they once roamed. A violent ganglord is forcing people out of their homes and off their land, determined to fulfil a bizarre ambition to create an empire that, with the wetlands a magnet for tourists, will help to make his fortune. Reluctantly Matthew, Miriam at his side, finds himself leading the resistance. In the confrontation that follows he is forced to fight for survival, a defenceless boy is stabbed, swans and their young are slaughtered - and, crazed by his tormentors, a lonely old dreamer finally finds the strength to kill. Throughout it all Miriam conceals from Matthew her private grief. Only when it is too late does he discover the heartbreak she has been hiding. But from the ashes of his fated love there springs at last new hope, new dreams and new romance.
