Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Mother
Presently the mothers sat side by side while the elder talked. She was a widow and lived with one son at the moorland hamlet of Merivale. Her friend also dwelt close at hand. Avisa had just been to a neighbouring Village and, returning homeward fell in with Mrs. Bolt gathering sticks along the wood.
Now the leaves danced round them, played at their feet, fell impartially on Mrs. Pomeroy's linen sunbonnet and the ancient black straw hat of Rachel. There was rain in the air and the October afternoon faded towards dusk.
