Plot summary[edit]

Paul Mathry, a student about to graduate and embark upon a teaching career, finds out that his father was convicted for murder, a secret that his mother had hidden from him since his childhood.
Driven by an intense desire to see his father, Paul sets out to visit him in prison, only to find out that visitors are never allowed there.
From there, he meets the primary witnesses in the case that convicted his father, not all of whom are supportive to Paul's cause. He encounters several dead ends but he persists, with the help of a store girl named Lena and a news reporter.
His persistent campaign finally bears fruit. Rees Mathry, Paul's father, goes on appeal and is vindicated. The novel ends with Paul's father, a hardened, cynical man, seeing a fleeting hope for self-renewal and a purposeful life.
From the book cover: 'In this, his latest and most exciting novel, A. J. Cronin tells of a son and his father, of a crime of passion and a crime of injustice, of a bond of loyalty that reached across fifteen years towards a man broken, brutalized, and forgotten within prison walls.
Paul Burgess at twenty-one was mature and level-headed, a successful student and a good son to his "widowed" mother. But his life turned to a nightmare when he discovered that he was the son of a convicted murderer who was even then serving the fifteenth year of his life sentence. The suspense mounts as Paul's inquiries not only resurrect long-buried fears and hatred but also bring threats and pressure from high places as he penetrates further into the mystery surrounding the crime and grows more and more convinced of his father's innocence. From then on the story is of Paul's desperate struggle for his father's release, supported only by a few loyal friends and by the girl he loves.
The dramatic force of 'Beyond This Place' is heightened by its social significance and by the warm human understanding that has characterized A. J. Cronin's work from 'Hatter's Castle' onwards. To read it is an experience that will be long remembered.'




*****
Archibald Joseph Cronin (19 July 1896 – 6 January 1981) was a Scottish novelist and physician,[2] His best-known novel, The Citadel (1937), tells of a Scottish doctor in a Welsh mining village, who quickly moves up the career ladder in London. Cronin had observed the venues as a medical inspector of mines and later as a doctor in Harley Street. The book promoted still controversial ideas about medical ethics and helped to inspire the National Health Service. Another popular mining novel of Cronin's, set in the North East of England, is The Stars Look Down. Both have been adapted as films, as have Hatter's CastleThe Keys of the Kingdom and The Green Years. Cronin's novel Country Doctor was adapted as a long-running BBC radio and TV series Dr. Finlay's Casebook, revived many years later.
