Continuing the slice of life in a small, coastal town – enchanting and eccentric, a haven for some, a trap for others. The “cause” of each character’s guilt leads to an awakening conscience in some, and conscience-free avoidance in others. While wildlife painter Miranda Jones journeys to Alaska for the first time and is confronted by the most startling temptation she’s ever faced, Zack Calvin struggles to understand the loss of purpose since his near-death experience and his intense sexual relationship with Cynthia Radcliffe. But conscience is also explored as a tool for developing one’s sense of purpose, as Samantha Hugo reexamines her environmental mission and Deputy Delmar Johnson tackles a closed case because conscience won’t allow him to leave it alone.

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
"The writing is crisp and clean, the dialogue realistic, the scenes well described. I salute Mara Purl’s ingenuity.” -- Bob Johnson, Associated Press, former Managing Editor
From the Publisher
"Milford-Haven, U.S.A." was the first American serialized radio drama ever broadcast on the BBC, and 4.5 million listeners tuned in weekly. Honored by the major broadcasting museums -- the Museum of Television & Radio in New York & Los Angeles, and the Museum of Broadcast Communications in Chicago, "Milford-Haven" now appears as a "serial novel" - one of the only such epics in print - a series of intriguing linked novels which draw the reader into deeper considerations with Book IV - "Cause and Conscience."

A people story for those who love people stories - highly recommended,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cause and Conscience (A Milford-Haven Novel) (Perfect Paperback)
When so many people are crammed so closely together, drama begins to play out. "Cause and Conscience" is another novel in the Milford-Haven series from esteemed writer Mara Purl. Centered around the age old conflict of developer and environmentalist, a vast and different cast of characters collide in a small town where they cannot escape one another. "Cause and Conscience" is a people story for those who love people stories - highly recommended.
