The great North Sea flood devastates much of the east coast of England.Â
The island in the Thames Estuary where George and Annie Hadley run their farm is almost completely submerged.Â
Annie and the four Hadley children try and escape to the mainland, but George must stay behind and attempt to save his animals, his home, and his livelihood.Â
When the waters recede, will anything of their former life remain?Â
The story of George and Annie Hadley is one of gritty determination, enduring love, and the power of nature.
The Farmer and the Fury takes the reader on a journey through 1950s post war Britain, with evocative depictions of rural life and a cast of beautifully drawn characters.
It is a novel based on the true event of the great North Sea flood of 1953.Â

Meet Cherry Burroughs
I am a family law barrister. I am married to a farmer and we live in Essex. The Farmer and the Fury is my debut novel. It is set within the great North Sea flood of 1953 which was the biggest peacetime disaster of the 20th century. It is a compelling story about a farming family and their battle for survival. The story is a timely reminder of the power of nature, a theme that is as important today as it was in 1953.
