Trudy Hampstead has a plan that will support her widowed mother and twin brother unwittingly involving their landlord's son. Their landlord is local gentry and philanderer Alistair Burgoyne QC and the one person who can ensure security of tenure. Trudy Lizzie thinks that Peter the local curate should step in to speak to Trudy, something he's more than happy to do since he has a secret agenda of his own. Meanwhile up at the farm the Lovestocks' marriage is coming apart at the seams, a fact that may partially threaten the peace of the village but not half as much as the anonymous random acts of violence that are about to hit Bellebrook.
British writer [[:Category:Helen Stafford|Helen Stafford]] started this, her first adult novel, years ago on a creative writing course. The good folk of Bellebrook eventually saw the light of a published day in 2014, providing us with a slice of eventful village life and a comfort read. A comfort read? Yes – you know the sort of book you reach for when the family are out and there's a warm fire/radiator (delete as applicable!) and pot of tea beside you? If you do and you're a fan of the genre, this is one to add to your list.
