Robert Lambkin's Review of When Morning Comes
A love story set in pre WW1 England in the beautiful lakes district. Lucy the main character is busy looking after her 4 sibling and father since the death of her mother and her awakening to the Women\'s suffragette movement. The urbane and rich James Buchannan enters her life and is smitten by her earthy good looks and charm and so begins to woo her unsuccessfully until the death of her father. Lucy faced with penury though not in love with James nevertheless opts to marry James who will give a home to her family. The war intervenes, developments of the first 20th century modern warfare and their relationship makes for interesting reading and not too gory as the story of Lucy and James unfolds.
