The New Rector: A new rector has arrived in the village of Turnham Malpas. Peter grows more and more involved with the rural way of life - until a spiteful trick goes horribly wrong, and his pastoral role becomes more crucial than ever. But Peter is wrestling with his own private hell that may still wreck his own life. Talk of the Village: The village is bedevilled by talk and all is not as it seems in the village of Turnham Malpas ...As the people of the village use the power of words to reconcile or divide, Peter finds it is what isn't talked about that has threatens to cause madness, confusion and tragedy.
