The countless readers of D.E. Stevenson's delightful novels will be especially engrossed by this one, the final book of her four-part "Mrs. Tim" series, and will find Hester Christie, herself, more lovable than ever. Humor, charm, and a superb talent for storytelling are the hallmarks of D.E. Stevenson's work.
Leaving Tim (now a colonel) in Kenya, Mrs. Tim flies home to her children for the summer in her beloved North Country. A stopover in Rome allows for the unexpected renewal of an old friendship with Tony Morley--a friendship regarded as highly suspect by fellow passenger Rosa Alston.
Once installed in The Small House in Old Quinings, a host of local characters--some familiar to followers of Mrs. Tim's adventures--brighten and shadow Hester's life. Tony Morley turns up, but so does Rosa Alston with her gossipy innuendos. Mrs. Tim has a trying time with a singularly unpleasant landlady, but two young romances enliven the village, and Mrs. Tim closes her diary on a note of infectious happiness.
