Set in the picturesque Pelorus Sounds in New Zealand's Marlborough region, Playing Beneath the Havelock House is the moving story of Dai and Bronwyn Ifans, a grieving couple who attempt to rebuild their lives after the death of their young son. As the sorrow threatens to destroy their relationship, two mysterious young children come into their lives and have a profound effect on them both. One is a withdrawn child with his own secrets while the other is a quirky and cheeky Maori boy. Connecting the two stories is a fierce local Maori man with a dark history. Playing Beneath the Havelock House is the second novel from Welsh writer Jon Lawrence, author of the acclaimed The Pastoral. It is a moving and mysterious insight into the way we deal with grief and how we learn to live again.
