Margaret Dickinson, who is from Gainsborough, has been signing copies of her newest novel The Poppy Girls which is set at Doddington Hall in Lincolnshire.

It follows two families struggling to cope with the aftermath of the First World War.

Four men and a woman have been jailed for the kidnap, imprisonment and torture of a 17-year-old boy from Grantham.

The gang, all from Peterborough, tricked the boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, by luring him to a bar to meet Danielle Corrigan, 27, (pictured above) and another girl.

Instead, two of the gang chased and caught the boy, beating and stabbing him before handcuffing him and driving him to a house.

While there he had a bag placed over his head, he was cut with a knife and tortured by the group.

The offenders (pictured above and below) were dealt with at Lincoln Crown Court.

Kane Stone, 25, (top left) was sentenced to 14 years in prison after pleading guilty to GBH and conspiracy to kidnap.

Adam Couzens, 25, (bottom left) was given 14 years in jail for the same charges.

Mohammed Nazir, 26, (top right) was sentenced to six years in jail for pleading guilty conspiracy to kidnap.

Danielle Corrigan, 27, (above middle) denied conspiracy to kidnap but was found guilty during the trial and was jailed for four years.

Alan Stokes, 36, (bottom right) was jailed for two years and three months after pleading guilty to conspiracy to falsely imprison.
