«Stately pursuits», Katie FForde
Hetty’s mother thinks that looking after Great-uncle Samuel’s crumbling stately home while he is in hospital will be just the thing to cure Hetty’s broken heart. Hetty doesn’t mind; at least she can be miserable in private.
But ‘private’ is a relative term in a village whose main concern is the goings-on at the big house. Particularly when you are the only person available to thwart Great-uncle Samuel’s Awful Heir and his nefarious plans to turn his inheritance into a fun fair.
Pitchforked into the community’s fight to preserve the manor, Hetty has no time to wallow. In fact, once she has shared her troubles with one neighbour (Caroline: a very understanding shoulder, despite her glamorous appearance and impossibly long legs), and cast an appreciative eye over another (Peter: equally long legged, but offering rather more practical help), she wonders if her heart is irretrievably broken after all …
