Synopsis:
Royston Hale is a young man with his whole life before him. He is also one of the long term unemployed. All Royston Hale wishes to do is to go camping in the countryside. Instead, much to his horror, he finds a job. Worse still, it's in a care home called 'Hilltops: Home for the Elderly, the Demented and the Misinformed.'
Royston has to deal with more than the care homes forty residents; first there’s the bitch-manager, Stephanie, who watches over Royston with a stern and malicious eye. There’s also the huge Ethiopian refugee, Archibald Marigold, a colleague who may, or may not be, having an affair with Royston’s wife, the beautiful Arabella, who works in the kitchens.
If all this wasn’t enough for Royston, he is also being stalked by the care homes most notorious and malignant residents; the identical twins, Franny and Roberta Rome. Franny and Roberta will get their man. They do not quite know what it is they will do with him when they have him but have him they will!
‘Raven on a Molehill’ is a short swift ride, where a little event can cause an uproarious consequence. Our unlikely hero, Royston Hale, manages, mostly unsuccessfully, to climb through the smallest of fiery rings. But Royston is a fighter and dusts himself down after each hard knock, with little more than an internal wink of the eye and gulping down a large stainless steel jug of strong black coffee.
Will Royston keep the job the hates? Will he ever be able to stop grinning like an idiot to the bitch-manager? Will he keep his newlywed wife happy? Will he escape the clutches of Franny and Roberta Rome? And will he ever get to go camping?
