Note
The author was born in Plymouth and has lived all her life in the West Country.
First line:
The child was twenty four hours old and protesting. From the moment of leaving her grandmother's soft, warm clasp to be plonked within the boney, musty crook of the parson's arm her rose petal face puckered and at the first touch of baptismal water she opened her bud of a mouth and bawled in outrage.
