500 _aA woman and a man .. words of love whispered on a summer night. Later, there is a child, but no wedding-ring. And then the man leaves the first woman, finds a younger woman, marries her .. it's an old story. This happens all the time, people don't change. But this story, set among the green hills of southere England has something different about it. Perhaps it is only a dream, or perhaps it is magic - a kind of strange dark magic that begins in the world of dreams and phantoms
