'All his novels are terrific, but this one is my favourite' Sarah
Waters Patrick Hamilton's novels were the inspiration for Matthew
Bourne's new dance theatre production, The Midnight Bell. Measuring
out the wartime days in a small town on the Thames, Miss Roach is
not unattractive but no longer quite young. The Rosamund Tea Rooms
boarding house, where she lives with half a dozen others, is as
grey and lonely as its residents. For Miss Roach, 'slave of her
task-master, solitude', a shaft of not altogether welcome light is
suddenly beamed upon her, with the appearance of a charismatic and
emotional American Lieutenant. With him comes change - tipping the
precariously balanced society of the house and presenting Miss
Roach herself with a dilemma.
