In the early-1930s a couple run away to a lonely cove in Cornwall and make their home in an old army hut. It is the time of the Great Depression; they need furniture, food, any means of raising cash they can think of whilst he, a struggling author, is determined to write a novel about the inshore fishermen of Robin Hood's Bay — a novel that will solve the couple’s financial problems. This is their story told with "... a simplicity and a charm equal to Thomas Hardy" (Book Society, 1939).

When first published Love in the Sun was destined to be a bestseller on a massive scale. Alexander Korda wanted the film rights, and actor Leslie Howard (Gone With the Wind) was considered for the lead role. But any hopes of Leo Walmsley attaining international acclaim were dashed by the outbreak of World War II.
