Product Description

It's easy to feel at home in Mitford. In these high, green hills, the air is pure, the village is charming, and the people are generally lovable. Yet, Father Tim, the bachelor rector, wants something more. Enter a dog the size of a sofa sho moves in and won't go away. Add an attractive neighbor who begins wearing a path through the hedge. Now, stir in a lovable but unloved boy, a mystifying jewel theft, and a secret that's sixty years old. Suddenly, father Tim gets more than he bargained for. And readers get a rich, provincial comedy in which mysteries and miracles abound.

Editorial Reviews

Praise for the Mitford Novels

"Karon knits Mitford's small-town characters and multiple story lines into a cozy sweater of a book."—USA Today

"Jan Karon reflects contemporary culture more fully than almost any other living novelist."—Los Angeles Times

"Welcome home, Mitford fans...to Karon's gift for illuminating the struggles that creep into everyday lives—along with a vividly imagined world."—People
