Publisher's Synopsis
When Matthew Taylor exchanged his job as a butcher for a career as a local insurance agent he never anticipated that on his first day he would deliver a stallion foal and kill seven pigs - all without selling a penn'orth of insurance. In the 1950s in rural Delverdale this is all in a day's work, and Matthew and his new family are happy to rise to the challenge, though persuading hard-headed Yorkshire folk to part with their money for 'summat thoo can't see' means Matthew has his work cut out for him!
