Liz Jones lived the perfect urban life. The immaculate Georgian townhouse in a leafy London square. The glamorous career. The Italian wardrobe stuffed with designer bags & shoes. The much younger novelist husb&. But then it all goes horribly wrong. She discovers her husband has been having numerous affairs (with women who are younger dimmer slimmer) & realises that her pursuit of perfection has never made her happy & probably never will. & so she decides to start all over again burying herself alive in the middle of the bleak unforgiving wilderness that is Exmoor National Park. She buys a wreck of a farmhouse with an original stable block 46 acres an ancient wood & a lake. She rescues a nervous & abused but breathtakingly beautiful racehorse & hopes to live out the rural dream. The reality of course is much much harder. THE EXMOOR FILES is a funny honest often brutal real-life account of what it is like to start all over again in an alien environment. It is about discovering that you cannot find peace just by moving somewhere peaceful. It is about mourning for a relationship & letting go of the life you thought you deserved.
