A Village Affair

The Grey House is the answer to everything in Alice Jordan’s perfect life. The beautiful eighteenth-century building with its orchard and paddock, the village of friendly eccentrics seems the ultimate achievement of her outwardly happy life. So why does she feel that something is missing? As they entrench themselves in local life, the something missing becomes huge, then breaks, scandalizing the village and opening up old wounds. But through it, because of it, Alice feels there is hope and humour, understanding and compassion in the new life she must build for herself.
