Trouble comes to the sleepy market town of Little Woodford - a world of allotments, pub quizzes, shopping and gossip - the heart of middle England.

Little Woodford is a quintessential English market town, with charming high street shops, allotments and thriving pubs. A young widow and her children arrive from London after buying the huge, rambling Victorian mansion called the Beeches.

Bex Millar hopes to escape from their previous life, and from a past involving a tragic incident with her stepdaughter. Bex tries to integrate herself and her family in their new community. She joins a pub quiz team and gets a job in the local bookshop. But it's hard to keep secrets in a small town and when the truth about her past finally emerges, it threatens to destroy her dream of an idyllic life in sleepy middle England.

A new village drama full of life, love (...) and secrets. Perfect for fans of Jill Mansell and Emma Burstall' Spalding Guardian, Book of the Week.
