A tragic short story from much-loved Victorian author Elizabeth Gaskell, 'The Half-Brothers' is a tale of love and rejection. Unloved and spurned by his stepfather, Gregory is treated very differently from his half-brother. When the favoured brother is caught in a dangerous and violent snowstorm as night is falling, Gregory must prove that his brotherly love is great enough to overcome the harsh treatment he has received – but will he be too late?
