Helm

a ferocious, mischievous wind - a subject of folklore and awe, who has blasted the sublime landscape of the Eden Valley since the very dawn of time.

Through the stories of those who've obsessed over this phenomenon, 's extraordinary history is formed: the Neolithic tribe who tried to placate , the Dark Age wizard priest who wanted to banish , the Victorian steam engineer who attempted to capture - and the farmer's daughter who loved.

Rich, wild and vital, the story of a unique life force, and of a relationship: between nature and people, neither of whom can weather life without the other.
