About this book
After midnight in a London club, three young gentlemen discuss a political defeat and the prospects of their brilliant acquaintance, Radford Leicester. His drinking troubles them, while his sharp replies expose his contempt for their religious advice and social gossip. Joseph Hocking begins with a man whose gifts as a speaker sit uneasily beside his cynicism, setting up a novel of courtship, belief and personal change.
A later scene brings Leicester into the care of Mrs. Pethick, whose tea, Cornish expressions and confidence in prayer offer another way of looking at his life. From sunlit moors he returns to London, giving the name Robert Baxter and discovering that newspapers are reporting his disappearance.
