Book Description

Publication Date: February 21, 2008 | Series: Burracombe Village 3

Hilary Napier is upset when her father, Colonel Napier, brings in a new manager for the family estate which she has been running for the past year. Even though she cannot help liking Travis Kellaway, she resents his presence. When her defenses are broken down by the illness of her brother's much-loved horse, Hilary realizes Travis's strength and compassion, and it isn't long before their relationship moves to a new footing. Meanwhile, life in the village of Burracombe is enlivened by the new Drama Club, formed by the energetic young curate Felix Copley. Almost the entire village becomes involved in his new pantomime, including Shirley Culliford, the little girl from the poorest cottage in town. But tragedy strikes when Travis catches Shirley and her father poaching in the estate woods. Shirley is injured in the ensuing skirmish and it seems that not only the pantomime but her very life is threatened.

More About the Author

Hi,I am Lilian Harry and am delighted to welcome you to my Author Central page. I've been writing for a long time now, under the name Donna Baker as well as Lilian Harry, and most of my books are classed as 'historical novels', including those set during the Second World War (which is slightly hurtful, since I remember it....) I grew up near Portsmouth in Hampshire, have lived in Devon, Herefordshire and the Lake District (my favourite place!) and am now back in Devon on the edge of Dartmoor, where I am out every day walking my miniature schnauzer. Apart from writing, I ring bells, take part in amateur dramatics, go to concerts, theatre etc, read and play bridge - but only with very tolerant, forgiving people who like me a lot. (Or on the computer!) I would like to be cloned so that I can do all these things simultaneously.
