Summary

'It's a small village is Barton-in-the-Dale, Mrs Stirling,' said the shopkeeper. 'You ought to know that by now. Nothing can be kept secret for too long. News travels fast.'

In the little village of Barton-in-the-Dale, long-hidden secrets are bubbling to the surface. Ashley Underwood and Emmet O'Malley are set to tie the knot, when a revelation from the handsome Irishman's past returns to haunt him. The town's resident nosey-parker discovers some juicy gossip about the primary school's dishy new staff-member and head teacher Elisabeth Stirling has a very special secret of her own.

As the wedding day draws closer, brewing secrets threaten to boil over. But along with the skeletons tumbling out of the closet comes plenty of laughter, drama, friendship and love. One thing's for sure: for some, life in Barton-in-the-Dale will never be the same again.

Critic reviews

"[Gervase Phinn is] a worthy successor to James Herriott, and every bit as endearing." (best-selling author Alan Titchmarsh)

Secrets at the Little Village School

I’ve read a lot of Gervais Phinn’s books. They are very amusing and well written. His voice is very pleasant and easy to listen to. This latest book is funny, heartwarming and very real. I thoroughly enjoyed it and hope he will write more in this vein.

Gervase brings all characters to life again in this wonderful book, and recaps on who they are from previous stories. Excellent 👍

The narrator Gervase Phinn, brilliant.

I liked everything and disliked nout, the variety of characters is quite wonderful, and the stories are captivating. but start with the first story to get the total enjoyment.

really enjoyable

This the last book in the series I have really enjoy geting to know the characters over the 5 books. This was a lovely way to end the series. I have loved how it all worked out in the end. It is brilliantly narrated by the author who brings the villiage and school to life.
