When sweet, healthy hearty Holly Fox dies suddenly in childbirth,
the Surrey village whose pearl she was reverberates with shock. She
leaves behind her a helpless, silent husband, and a tiny daughter,
Faith. Everyone assumes Holly's loving and capable mother Thomasina
will look after Faith, but when she unaccountably deserts her
newborn grandchild, the baby must be packed off to her father's
peculiar family in the North - 'the very strangest people you ever
saw my dear'. With wisdom, generosity, and understanding, Jane
Gardam takes as her subject the English heart in all its eccentric
variety. FAITH FOX sheds a clear, true light on the pain of
bereavement whilst always offering the joyous possibility of a new
beginning.
