Résumé

A historical novel of life, love and murder in Victorian England. This well-researched true story follows the life of Sarah Ann Davis as she leaves her Black Country home in search of a better life in the booming cotton district of East Lancashire. Sarah goes on to work in service and the humour and hardship of life in the cotton village of Barrowford are superbly described. The humanity of northern people shines through the text but even this cannot prevent the final tragedy that is waiting in the wings.

À propos de l'auteur

Biographie de John Clayton

Having qualified at Oxford University as a local historian I proceeded to study as a landscape archaeologist. I have written a number of books (including a novel)covering aspects of the history of my district - namely the East Lancashire Forest of Pendle. I am a leading authority on the subject of the Lancashire Witches of 1612 and 1634 and have puplished three books relating to these nfamous witch trials.
In 2011 I acted as historical advisor to Wingspan Productions on their 2011 BBC4 film The Pendle Witch Child. I have also helped on other BBC television productions and have broadcast on BBC radio.
