by JOHN FOWLES
A film written by MALCOLM BRADBURY with Michael Thomas and Barbara Kellerman
When John Fielding , MP, disappeared on the way home to his country estates he was, perhaps, cracking the first good joke of his life. Sergeant Jennings, left to pursue the investigation, finds little humour or help amongst Fielding's friends or family. Only Isobel could believe that Fielding might have wanted to disappear.
