Summary
With husband Tim stationed in Egypt and her children at boarding school, Hester Christie -affectionately known as 'Mrs Tim' and based loosely on D. E. Stevenson herself - finds herself at a loose end, until her friend Grace takes her at her word and finds her a job with the formidable Erica Clutterbuck, who has opened a new hotel in the Scottish Borders.
Once there, Hester’s initial ambivalence disappears in a swirl of problems and situations with hotel guests and old friends alike, including serving as fortune-teller at the local fête and aiding and abetting romantic schemes, not to mention the reappearance of the debonair Tony Morley.

An interesting insight into post-war Britain
This novel, published in 1947, is an interesting insight into post-war Britain – how people lived, and how they felt. It is a nice, gentle, relaxing book, wholesome, and suitable for all the family. The narrator is excellent.
