Secrets in Prior's Ford (Priors Ford 1) [Paperback]

Eve Houston (Author)

Book Description

Series: Priors Ford 1 | Publication Date: May 28, 2008

There is a rumble of disquiet among the villagers of the pretty Scottish border town of Prior's Ford when a firm expresses interest in reopening an old sandstone quarry. It will be disruptive, noisy, and dusty, despite bringing in some new jobs. Publican Glen organizes a protest group, but when the local newspaper takes an interest in him and the story, he starts to feel nervous. When Jenny Forsyth attends a protest meeting and sees the quarry surveyor she discovers a ghost from her past that she would rather keep to herself. Clarissa Ramsay, newly widowed, is too preoccupied to care much about the new threat facing the village—she has just discovered her husband's secret life, and has resolved to make some radical changes to her own.

This review is from: Secrets in Prior's Ford (Priors Ford 1) (Paperback)

This is the first in a series, and after reading it, I ordered the next two and read them. Set in an almost idyllic Scottish Borders village with a cast both pleasant and unpleasant, intrigues personal and political,the books are entertaining and engaging. Perfect comfort reading.
