THE REPORTER
Rachel Francis
 

WHAT IF ... things are not as they seem?

​​​​

Times are changing; a farm on the edge of Dartmoor lies empty; and if anyone in the town knows what happened to Olive Gladfield, then they're not telling. Abel Richards must uncover the real story.

​​

​

Rachel Francis has worked on Dartmoor both as pony trek leader and on a farm. She is interested in rural and indigenous cultures, how they live, how their cultures overlap, 

​

The Reporter is available from regional  bookshops.

“Rachel is, in my view, one of the best fiction  writers talking about contemporary rural existence, about the farming life, about the countryside.”

“In Malka Older’s The Mimicking of Known Successes the central character talks about how the body yearns with a terrible epigenetic ache for 'an ecosystem I had never known but wanted, always wanted.' Reading The Reporter leaves me with an ache to be there, in that ecosystem.”
