Excellent book set in 1800's England.  Very well written and an excellent portrait of the times as well as the human condition in the poor communities.  Well plotted and easy to follow, a joy to read. The life of a retired police officer and his efforts to continue to support his family, fraught with the expected and unexpected problems of a society stratified by class and money.  Sounds like today.
