Three Great Novels

THE NEW RECTOR, TALK OF THE VILLAGE and VILLAGE MATTERS are the first three volumes in the Turnham Malpas series. Rebecca Shaw's novels have been described as 'The Archers with spice' and it is this intimate approach that has made her the bestselling author she is now. THE NEW RECTOR introduces Peter and his wife Caroline to the village. Peter is young, vigorous and very handsome. As rector, the problems of the village become his concern but complications ensue when the newly widowed Suzy Meadows turns to him for comfort. TALK OF THE VILLAGE and VILLAGE MATTERS continue the story of the inhabitants of Turnham Malpas with stories of kidnap and abuse, the new man at the big house and lots of other warm and worrying developments that make this village full of gossip and friendship.
