Stagdale: Part 1

It's the summer of 1975 and 12-year-old Kathy arrives in the ancient village of Stagdale with her recently divorced mother, hoping to find a new life in the British countryside. When Kathy befriends local boy Joe, she learns about the missing Stag Jewel - a Saxon gold amulet that once brought prosperity to the village - and discovers that a German boy once lived in her cottage during World War Two. Frances Castle's visually arresting graphic novel captures the essence of 1970s rural England with delicate textures and atmospheric storytelling.
