Descriere magazin:
Caroline opened the door and saw Mr. Shepperton standing on the step. Oh, it\'s you she exclaimed in surprise. Did you--were you expecting someone else? he asked. Only the Queen, replied Caroline, chuckling. Don\'t mind me, she added. I often go slightly mad. Caroline Dering, a widow with three grown children, lives a cheerful, quiet life near the idyllic English village of Ashbridge. But things are about to liven up, as daughter Leda announces a problematic engagement to the son of the local squire, son James returns from service and pursues romance with the squire\'s independent daughter, and sister Harriet, a famous actress who latest play has bombed, retreats to Ashbridge for a break. Then there\'s Robert Shepperton, a charming widower recovering from the losses of war at the local inn . . . These problems, as well as smaller challenges with an overbearing village organizer, the blustering Sir Michael, and Caroline\'s daily help (who rejoices in the name of Comfort Podbury), are resolved with all of D.E.
