Shane Warne is arguably the greatest leg spin bowler cricket has ever seen. He enjoyed a record-breaking Test career with Australia, leading them to a 5-0 whitewash of England in 2007; a hugely successful period as captain of Hampshire; and before he officially retired he led a team of young hopefuls – the Rajasthan Royals – to win the newly created Indian Premier League in 2008. He is a born winner, whose opinion on cricket matters – not only to the general public but to his fellow players as well. His 2006 Times column about the top 50 Test players of all time broke records for the number of hits on the paper’s website – the public wanted to know his opinion of the players of his era. Now he has retired, he feels the time is right to put his extended thoughts down on paper.

₦3,000.00 ₦3,000.00Northfolk, 1920. Barbara Bosgrove has lived in the market town of Melsham all her life, and is looking forward to the annual Harvest Supper dinner ball- the first since the dark days of the First World War.
George Kenneth, a fiercely ambitious man, had his eye on Barbara since spotting her with her great friend Penny, and Penny’s brother Simon. He begins a slow and steady courtship and Barbara is eventually won over, agreeing to marry a man she believes can rely on.
Little does she realise how wrong she can be. Worn down by George’s unfaithfulness during their marriage, Barbara feels she has lost all the vitality of her youth.
But Simon is not prepared to let Barbara lose sight of the woman she really is-the woman he has always loved. Her reawakens Barbara’s passion and fighting spirit, but at what cost?
