Book Description:
A story to return to again and again
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 who 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 thief, 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.

This is the first book in the Mitford series and they are all well writen and extremely funny.

The Mitford books just make me feel uplifted.
Danielle C. from GREELEY, CO wrote on 11/22/2006...This is all about the small village life of Mitford and the rector who keeps an eye over the Episcopalian church there. A real good read and quite enticing. I am excited about reading the next in the series.
I like this fun quite read. It is a nice easy going read about a small town that I wish that I lived in. It touched my heart.
