The Branded man

Fourteen-year-old Marie Anne Lawson, youngest daughter of a prosperous Northumbrian family, had always run when she might have walked, and it was as she was running away from a sight she would rather not have witnessed that she stumbled and fell, injuring her ankle, to be discovered by a local man who, because of a disfigurement, was known thereabouts as 'the branded man'. 1996.

  • "Many twists and turns of fate awaited Marie Anne over the years, with Sarah Foggerty playing a part in her destiny but neither she nor Marie Anne could have foreseen the consequences of their timely friendship."
  • "Set at the turn of the century in the wilds of Northumberland and in the slums of the East End of London, The Branded Man is the gripping story of Marie Anne, Sarah Foggerty and the mysterious man who was to influence both their lives."
  • "Marie Annes mother, with no love and little sympathy, awaited her recovery with impatience, for she had already planned to dispatch her wayward daughter to London, where her Aunt Martha would supervise the development of her natural ability for the piano, the only talent her mother believed her daughter possessed. Marie Anne was already resentful at the enforced exile, and Aunt Marthas frosty reception caused her to wonder if one domination would now be replaced by another. Only the friendship of her Aunts companion, Sarah Foggerty, prevented her from plunging into despair that and the encouragement she received from her music tutor on her daily visits to the Academy. Why, then, did his sudden disappearance make it necessary for her to return to Northumberland, this time into the care of her beloved grandfather?"
