Kevin took his usual route into the hills. Eporner “This is my sister Jenny.” He blurted, I assumed in case she thought I was his girlfriend. “I know, Kevin has told me all about you.”

Kevin continued to climb, further than he’d ever remembered walking before and crested Chapelfell Top so that he peer down into Swinhope Moor. She wore working clothes, dungarees and a thick plaid shirt, which was far too big and with the sleeves rolled up so that the tips of her delicate fingers protruded from them. But I saw the piercing blue eyes he’d described the night before.
