MUSTER'S PRIDE.

From the black, a circle of blue could be seen. A blue, polished in looks and yet wet if you were to touch it. The blue in turn became a white with red lines streaking in various directions before revealing the truth....
A face etched in pain! Yet, no cry came forth from the mouth...

This is about a young man (Howard H Muster) who now nearly in his twenties has found life very hard. Disabled in a car accident and with the loss of his best friend has left him with mental and physical scars. Abandoned by his family or so he feels with the death of his mother and his father's inability to cope; Howard Muster ends up being kind of adopted by the Lane family. They have a lovely pretty daughter ( Elizabeth Lane ) whom he loves dearly, until one day a strange handsome man (Peter Scot) arrives on a dashing motorcycle in front of the Lane's family store. Elizabeth is smitten along with her mother's approval begins courtship in which Howard is envious also suspicious of Peter's past. Feeling rejected Howard befriends a girl from the local seaport named Jasmine who lives life under the control of a pimp. Howard has many ghosts and obstacles to over come and finds a soul mate in Jasmine. They do their best to keep above the waves of prejudice and hate from many; while avoiding the same pitfalls themselves. Howard Muster is a lovely tale of how love conquers all and that the truth will always come out in the end.
Muster's Pride has been labeled as a must read and has also been compaired to a modern day Catherine Cookson.
