A Turnham Malpas Novel: 6
When Jimbo asks his mother, Katherine, to come and live near him in
Turnham Malpas, his kindness has rather more repercussions than he
anticipated. Before long Katherine is organising the harvest festival
display, and causes uproar with her high-handed ways. Worse still,
she sets herself up as guardian of the villagers' morals, and spreads
rumours and half-truths about her neighbours' lives. But Katherine
goes too far when she organises a petition to try and rid the village
of those she considers to be most at fault.
Only Peter, the rector, can control Katherine's more outrageous actions.
Finding it hard to resist his natural charm and diplomacy she gradually
begins to mellow as the village works its magic on her . . .
