The sleepy village of Trecadno doesn't get much fresh blood, let alone that most exotic of specimens...a Londoner.Soon he finds himself on call to the whole community: there are classes to be taught, campaigns to be run, even coffins to be carried.Still, it's not all bad. There's the attention of Trecadno's female population for one: a beautiful pharmacist, a flirty teacher...He could get used to this.However, as John gets to grips with the quirks of his new home, he can't slip the suspicion that something isn't quite right. Someone, or something, is watching him from afar - and it's not just his landlady...At once suspenseful and side-splitting, Trecadno rests on a minutely observed portrait of rural Welsh life, a portrayal as affectionate as it is playful.

Driven by his Republican ideals, family loyalties and enmity toward England, his experiences there culminate in a life-or-death maritime battle.

When Angela Collingham's drug-filled body is found on a banquette in the Avondale wine bar, Dover police are on the alert for a killer. Then Angie's client, a studmuffin called Bunny Daniel, is found dead on a bed. Nobody suspects big fat Nick, who works at the Avondale, but he's planning a major blackmail job on Angie's wealthy ex-husband, Mike Clayton. Enter briefly Angie's schoolgirl daughter, Judy, Clayton's estranged heir. With her nicely out of the way in a shallow grave, Nick can substitute her beautiful cousin Ursula, and get access to Clayton's business: The Jewellery Safe Deposit in London. Clayton accepts Ursula as his daughter, but will she play the game and help Nick and his loathsome colleague, Hardwood, to megabucks? In this taut tale of greed, desperation and mayhem, O A Davies takes potshots at people from all levels of society: the rich, the needy, the local bloodsuckers and the robber barons from overseas. Life is indeed cruel when you're poor!
