The captivating prequel to the Grantchester series following the life, loves and losses of a young Sidney Chambers in post-war London.

James Runcie is an award-winning film-maker, Commissioning Editor for Arts at BBC Radio 4, and author of ten novels. His Grantchester novels have been aired on ITV as a prime-time series.

‘He is the simple chronicler of English post-war life, using irony and understatement to lay bare the pathos of ordinary lives’ (Sunday Telegraph)

‘Runcie has the gift of a born storyteller’ (Daily Mail)
