Margot Macfayden, nee Phelps, spends the months following her husband's death visiting friends in Greshambury, Southbridge and Harefield as she ponders relocating while hoping to avoid again being pre-empted by her aged parents (who, to be fair, share her feelings). At Harefield we become reacquainted with the Beltons; Mr Belton, previously an inconspicuous figure, comes into his own as he delivers masterful performances ranging from 'Old English Squire' to 'King Lear' meriting the admiration and amusement of his friends and relatives. We also are fortunate to make the acquaintance of Admiral Prsvb of the Mixo-Lydian Navy, which consists of 'one very out-of-date English gunboat on a lake', as he comes to dinner at the Fairweathers with our old friend Gradka, the Ambassadress (formerly the Feeling's cook).

More melancholy than the typical Barshetshire book from Thirkell, this 27th entry in the series returns to Margot Phelps Macfayden. However, we do learn almost in passing that Edith Graham has finally become engaged (and not to her cousin Ludo)... ( )

A little more melancholy in spots than earlier books, but still admirable ( )

One major story line, not as confusing as many of these later novels were, a fun read. ( )
