The four Freeland brothers have gone very different ways: a successful businessman, a Home Office man, a writer, and Tod, who lives on the land in Worcestershire with his fierce wife Kirsteen. When a local labourer is threatened with eviction, Tod’s children Derek and Sheila take his side against the great estate, with Felix, the writer, trying to keep the family from disaster.
