Orphan Lamb (Round Ringford Book 4)

Life should be simple for Robert and Mandy Bates...

Newly married, with their own cottage in the idyllic country village of Round Ringford, what more could they want?

But, as is often the case in the life of a small village, undercurrents beneath the tranquil surface of Round Ringford life soon begin to surface.

What will old farmer Ted Bates say when his only son Robert announces plans to set up his own garage in the village and not follow in his footsteps on the farm?

Ted is not the only one to disagree with Robertâ€™s plans, as villagers begin to vocalise their concerns.

Meanwhile, the appearance of Bridget Reilly, beautiful Irish nanny for the well-to-do Standing Family, threatens to stir the village further.

Peggy Palmer sets sights on the unhappily married Bill Turner but will it end happily and what will the grande-dame of Round Ringford, formidable old Ivy Beasley, make of it all?

When Mandy falls pregnant her and Robertâ€™s lives become rockier still.

It soon becomes clear that the pair are going to need all the support they can get.

But will they receive it from the villagers of Round Ringford?

With its panoply of richly-drawn characters, Orphan Lamb is a gentle treat for all those who love tales of the English country village.
