TheStory
Dirty Work in High Places, by Tim Kelly is a modern melodrama set in a sea side town. The story revolves around some dear old folk about to lose their 'humble beach cottages' to the dastardly entrepreneur, Gentle Grimmes. Grimmes is the villain and is opposed by the hero, Dauntless Crusader. Grimmes and Dauntless also vie for the affections of the heroine, Sweet Saccharine, who is 'too good to be true' and helps in the campaign to save the cottages. There are, of course, many other noble and/or dubious characters who complete the story.
