mörn Josh Lawton is an orphan who has been brought up by a vicar, and now works as a farm hand for Wilson, a strict but just Methodist whose wife softens his occasional harshness towards his employee. Josh is a young man of few words, of striking physical beauty, greatly loved in the Cumbrian village of Ullaby. He is being trained as a feli runner by Cedric Tyson, an ex-soldier. At a dance in the local town of Thurston, Maureen Telford, the pretty daughter of a wastrel father, falls in love with Josh at first sight. Shyly at first, Josh responds. A short courtship leads to marriage. Cedric, enraged by his protégé's betrayal, leaves the district. A girl is born, whom Josh adores, and time passes. Josh is content and happy, but Maureen wearies of her cooped-up existence - she pines for the bright lights, above all she is powerfully attracted by the sexual prowess of Blister, Thurston's bully-boy. Ultimately she leaves Josh, just as Cedric returns, setting in train a series of events which lead to the story's dramatic climax. Of Melvyn Bragg's gift for lyrical description of place and mood readers are already aware. Josh Lawton is alsó a növel of great power and tension. Above all, he has triumphantly succeeded in a most difficult task, the convincing portrayal, in Josh Lawton, of innocence. Vissza
