Description
A long summer stretches out before Richard Tebben as he contemplates his stay with his family in Worsted. But when the Dean family arrives for the holidays, their presence brings a welcome injection of glamour and energy to the village.
The Deans are a force to be reckoned with, comprising exquisite Rachel, her capable husband, and six brilliant children. As they prepare for Mrs Palmer's disastrous annual play, Richard and his sister Margaret find themselves drawn into a whirlwind of performances, rehearsals, and social events.
