Father Tim and Cynthia have been at home in Mitford for three years since returning from Whitecap Island.
In the little town that’s home-away-from-home to millions of readers, life hums along as usual. Dooley looks toward his career as a vet; Joe Ivey and Fancy Skinner fight a haircut price war that takes no prisoners; and Percy steps out on a limb with a risky new menu item at the Main Street Grill.
Though Father Tim dislikes change, he dislikes retirement even more. As he and Cynthia gear up for a year-long ministry across the state line, a series of events sends shock waves through his faith-and the whole town of Mitford.
In her seventh novel in the bestselling Mitford Years series, Jan Karon delivers surprises of every kind, including the return of the man in the attic and an ending that no one in Mitford will ever forget.

Summary
The 7th book in the series is as wonderful as the previous 6. By now the characters are familiar to readers of the earlier books but they continue to grow and develop. One rushes to the next book as these characters seem like family or old friends. While Mitford is a comforting place to visit, no one and nothing is ever all good or all bad and that adds to the enjoyment. An excellent read
