Evelyn Anthony | 1987 | A place to hide | The tragedy-torn world of the Arbuthnot family spans two generations of Anglo-Irish bound together by violence and death - and with the greatest drama yet to come. His mother, the daughter of a local famer, died giving him birth. His father, a wealthy Anglo-Irishman, has hated him ever since. Growing up unloved and resented, Frank Arbuthnot forges a bond with the only one he can - his half-sister Claire, five years his junior. When Claire learns years later and miles apart that her brother is missing, she starts on a terrifying journey across Ireland to find him. But Frank, having rejected his background of wealth and privilege, and under the sway of a beautiful IRA terrorist with whom he has fallen in love, has long been a pawn in the murderous game of Irish politics. When he turns on the rebels after an act of brutal violence, his lover, Marie, who is insanely jealous of Claire, the only rival she can never overcome, betrays him. Claire is tracked by both British intelligence and members of the IRA, playing out a deadly game of cat and mouse, she suddenly remembers an isolated and desolate park in County Meath with a secret place where she and Frank hid as children and where she thinks he must have taken refuge. It is a hiding place that she must find again if either of them is to survive. | ||

Pamela Macgregor-Morris | 1949 | Lucky Purchase | The Arbuthnot family took horses a little too far, even into the drawing room! All except young Jane. Jane was just fed up with anything to do with horses or Horse Shows and was the despair of everybody. Until one day at the seaside she met Kitty - that forlorn but lovable old beach pony whose ancient, haggard appearance was the joke of all Bognor. And when Jane saw a bully of a boy beat up poor old Kitty, all her deep love of ponies welled up within her. How Kitty finds a good home, and of her final adventures with the local hunt, is a story that will delight not only horse-lovers but those whose knowledge of horses is confined to roundabouts. Pamela MacGregor-Morris understand the writing of children's books unusually well, and knows at once that even in juveniles all cannot be expected all the time to turn out for the best "in this best of all possible worlds". This is, however, the best possible sequel to TOPPER: and Lionel Edwards illustrations ensure its success and will need no reintroduction to horse-lovers. | ||
