The Swift and the Harrier
Minette WaltersSpent this afternoon in the company of @SturminsterF's event in Marnhull. Minette Walters spoke about her latest book – The Swift and the Harrier. Set in Dorset, it retells the story of the Civil War. You can't beat a slice of local history. Nor a slice of apple pie for pudding. https://t.co/yd71YB790F
