Tom finds the smaller scale of village life as dramatic as his former parish in Bristol could ever be and of course, there’s a murder.

They didn’t make my wish to hang on to the Christmas season come true, since none in the series so far have been set during Christmas, but Benison’s Fr. Benison (aka Doug Whiteway), the Canadian author of Twelve Drummers Drumming (2011), Eleven Pipers Piping (2012) and Ten Lords A-Leaping (2013).

Touchstone, William Shakespeare, As You Like It The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool.
