Description
Spring has arrived in Thrush Green, bringing with it more than just warmer weather. Gossip is buzzing through the village as two ex-schoolteachers return to visit their friends. The old schoolhouse has been sold, and the villagers are eager to welcome its new owners, the Lesters. Rumours soon circulate about Margaret Lester's behaviour, while Bertha Lovelock's actions raise equal interest. Meanwhile, farmer Percy Hodge is contemplating a surprise of his own - marriage to Doreen Lilly. As the village prepares for change, old friendships and alliances are put to the test. In this engaging saga, the quiet rhythms of rural life are disrupted by the arrival of new faces and fresh relationships.
