To Everything a Time

by Eleanor Watkins

On the surface, Alison Harper's life might seem carefree and serene; happily married, four healthy children, a farmhouse home in the beautiful Border countryside that she loves. But, as the New year unfolds, unforeseen events and issues arise, some trivial and easily dealt with, others that are matters of life and death. There are mysteries too. What is the connection between her fifteen-year-old son and the vicar's daughter? Why has the nine-year-old begun stealing? And who is the strange man who covertly watches children in the school playground from the shelter of the trees? Ali aims to discover the answers, and sometimes finds herself with more than she can handle.

[Tandy Davies · Rating 3 out of 5]

A very unusual book written in the first person from a standpoint of the "lived" Christian faith-engaging story of an extended family and rural village life.
