A Turnham Malpas Novel: 1
The new rector of Turnham Malpas is young, vigorous, and very handsome.
And, as Peter Harris encounters his flock, he discovers there is more
to village life than he had anticipated. The local publicans are having
trouble with their wayward daughter, Sharon, whilst at the village
store, the Charter-Placketts are trying to bring a touch of Harrods
to the neighbourhood. And then there is the beautiful, tragic Suzy
Meadows. With the prospect of bringing up three children alone after
the suicide of her husband, she turns to Peter for support - and the
new rector finds himself facing a difficult decision.
Then the whole village is rocked by a spiteful trick that goes terribly
wrong, and a gruesome murder that points to a killer in its midst.
Now, more than ever, Peter's pastoral role is crucial - and yet he
is wrestling with his own private hell that may still wreck his life.
