Readers of the Martin Cole series of novels will be familiar with the cosy side (apart from a murder or two) of the fictional Devon town of Roselake. In his new novel Alan Tootill pulls the curtain aside to reveal what goes on behind Roselake's tranquil façade. A request to change a street name leads to division in the town, vigilantes roaming the streets and police helicopters in the air. Not to mention the burning down of the Town Hall. 'English provincialism gently but tellingly skewered' 'a great gallery of characters' 'a ring of authenticity even when (or because) things verge on the preposterous and comic'

Why, asks Kelly Johnson, does Christian ethics so rarely tackle the real-life question of whether to give to beggars? Examining both classical economics and Christian stewardship ethics as reactions to medieval debates about the role of mendicants in the church and in wider society, Johnson reveals modern anxiety about dependence and humility as well as the importance of Christian attempts to rethink property relations in ways that integrate those qualities. She studies the rhetoric and thought of Christian thinkers, beggar saints, and economists from throughout history, placing greatest emphasis on the life and work of Peter Maurin, a cofounder of the Catholic Worker movement. Challenging and thought-provoking, The Fear of Beggars will move Christian economic ethics into a richer, more involved discussion.
