Description
The year is 1909. Bargoed is a burgeoning town in the Rhymney Valley since the sinking of the coal mine by Powell Duffryn Steam Coal Company. Walter Lewis, the newly elected miners' agent, represents the working men of the valley who pay their penny due to the Fed, the South Wales Miners Federation. Walt's life is about to become more complicated when an unexpected visitor arrives in town. A young woman claims a connection to Miah, a friend Walt has known since childhood through the church. As Walt tries to understand this new information, he begins to question what he thought he knew about his friend's past. Meanwhile, tensions are rising in other parts of town, where outsiders have moved in and caused unease among the local community. For those with connections to the Rhymney Valley or a keen interest in its history, this book offers a gripping tale of crime, mystery, and drama that explores the complexities of life in a rapidly changing world.
