Larry McCoubrey - The Leveret

4 Extra Debut. John Graham's decision to return to live in his native County Down appears to be sound. Until a young hare enters his life. Stars Sean Barrett.

John Graham's decision to return from London to live in his native County Down seems to have been a good one.

His English wife Ruth loves her new home, and the children seem to have settled in well too - especially when they're allowed to keep a young, abandoned hare as a pet.

In fact, Northern Ireland seemed an idyllic place to live until they found the leveret...

"The leveret is said to be capable of contacting the middle world... it's all superstitious nonsense, of course..."

Novel written by Larry McCoubrey.

Starring Sandra Clark and Sean Barrett.
