Fiona Norwood, the new rector's wife, has caused quite a stir in the close-knit parish community of Aberthwaite. With her glossy blonde hair, fashionable clothes and lavish use of make-up, she is not what the rural Yorkshire community expected, and her ideas to modernise the parish do not go down well with some of the more traditional members of the congregation.
Fiona is at the centre of the gossip and rumour in the community and it is only a matter of time before someone discovers the secret she's been hiding in her past, something she hasn't even told her new husband. The revelations and heartache that ensue have unforeseen consequences for more than one member of the parish.
An enchanting saga of marriage and secrets, perfect for fans of Rosie Archer and Margaret Dickinson.
