Author Name
Brenda Despontin (Author)
Brenda grew up in Wales, and spent most of her working life there. She has been writing stories since she could hold a pencil, and taught English for many years. Books have always been an important part of her life, and she has just published her first novel. “Some Hidden Thunder”” tells the story of John Frost, a forgotten Welsh hero and leader of the radical Chartist movement. The story includes Frost's trial for treason, the time spent in Van Diemen's Land and his subsequent journey across America in 1855. Told as historical fiction, the novel also explores the impact his actions had on the family he left behind. Brenda currently lives on the Welsh coast with her husband and dog.Read more about this authorRead less about this author

Description
Bristol 1876, and the former Chartist leader John Frost, now 92, is anxious to record his life, but his eyesight is failing. The task is left to his daughter Anne, who sifts through her father’s journals, letters, pamphlets and contemporary newspaper reports to unravel the details of his extraordinary odyssey.

Born in a dockside public house, radicalised in London, Frost leads the Welsh Chartists in the Newport uprising of 1839 and is subsequently tried for treason and transported to Van Diemen’s Land. Fifteen years later, he sails to San Francisco then crosses the Wild West to New York before his pardon brings him home to a hero’s welcome.

Now an old man, Frost lives a reclusive life, with Anne his sole companion. As she weaves his tale, she begins to understand the sacrifices her father made, the true price he paid for his radical ideals.

But she also recalls poignantly the impact his actions had on the family he left behind. .
