Algernon Pembroke is the last steward of Haversham, a fading English estate. His life is one of quiet ritual and unwavering duty to centuries of tradition. His son, Leo, is a brilliant London programmer who traded the dusty archives for a world of constant search, viewing his father’s world as a museum.

When a ruthless development threat targets the heart of the estate, the two men are forced together. They speak different languages, one of heritage, the other of hashtags.

As they fight to save their home, they must confront the decade of silence and misunderstanding that lies between them. Can the keeper of the past and the architect of the future find a common language?

A poignant and uplifting story of family, forgiveness, and the unexpected ways we honour what we love, The Steward and the Code is for anyone who has ever struggled to bridge a gap between the generations.
