Plot

The calm existence of the small Yorkshire town of Higherfield is shattered when a strange spacecraft crashes nearby. Whilst an avalanche of publicity sweeps in, events take a sinister turn when one of the discoverers of the object becomes insane, and riots and hysteria begin to sweep the country, to the great consternation of the previously unconcerned Prime Minister, who soon finds himself in the thick of the conundrum.[1][2]

After

The novel made little impact. Although Bennett lived for another twelve years, she published nothing further.

gollark: It's probably *possible*, with work, to run other general-purpose software on a DS. It's much easier with fairly standard x86 machines.
