He teaches her to swim, gently guiding her through the water in the shadow of the city's famous pier and Marion is smitten—determined her love alone will be enough for them both. A few years later near the Brighton Museum, Patrick meets Tom. Patrick is besotted, and opens Tom's eyes to a glamorous, sophisticated new world of art, travel, and beauty. Tom is their policeman, and in this age it is safer for him to marry Marion and meet Patrick in secret. The two lovers must share him, until one of them breaks and three lives are destroyed.\n \nIn this evocative portrait of midcentury England, Bethan Roberts reimagines the real life relationship the novelist E. M. Forster had with a policeman, Bob Buckingham, and his wife. My Policeman is a deeply heartfelt story of love's passionate endurance, and the devastation wrought by a repressive society.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch5\u003eFicha técnica\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.28\"W x 7.97\"H x 0.78\"D   (13.4 x 20.2 x 2.0 cm) | 9 oz (244 g) | 24 per carton\nOn sale Nov 08, 2022 | 304 Pages | 978-0-593-51167-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch5\u003eSobre el autor\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cp\u003eBethan Roberts was born in Abingdon.
