Orion mass market paperback Precious Time
The heroine of Erica James' seventh novel, <I>Precious Time</I>, is determined to make some changes in her life. Single mum Clara Costello has a secure job, a nifty sports car, a lovely house and a beguiling four-year-old son, called Ned. Ned is due to start school, but before he does Clara is determined to spend some precious time with him. So, feeling like an intrepid explorer she resigns from her job, buys a camper van and heads off on a tour of England to show Ned what an exciting world he lived in, so that he would grow up knowing that there were endless possibilities out there for him. Clara's wonderful tour doesn't go quite to plan. A mere 250 miles from their starting point they arrive in Beaconsfield in the Peak District and get caught up in the lives of a handful of folk.<p> Erica James' novel really comes into its own here. The characters are engaging, infuriating, their individual stories involving. There's Gabriel Liberty a 79-year-old cantankerous tyrant who's walled up with grief in the huge decaying Mermaid house. There's his son, schoolteacher Jonah, with his fine boned face and disarming smile and his difficult twin brother and sister Casper and Damson. Archie Merryman also lives in the village, a gentle soul who's caring for his mother and trying to come to terms with the failure of his marriage to stroppy Stella. Erica James deftly weaves these disparate characters together, revealing the secrets and regrets of their emotional lives, while keeping the plot moving at a sprightly pace. This is a deft and entertaining read from this popular author.--<I>Eithne Farry</I>
