Quarry

Hannah is obsessed with the disused chalk quarry which dominates her town's skyline. Why is it patrolled by security teams? What are they hiding? And who's "they"? She's determined to find out.
While the quarry is a real landmark in south London, the story as told here is a work of fiction from the author, Ann Butler's imagination. No inference or link should be made to real institutions, organisations or local residents.  
Ann Butler is also the author of the women's fiction novels After the Hurt and Caught Out.
