Autumn
of Strangers
(Hodder & Stroughton, ISBN 0-340-65369-8)
Take an English country village, add a group of New Age travellers

the problems that result when people are taken at face value.

| A well written novel with a large cast of characters, a pleasing,
gentle wit and a strong awareness of the countryside's historical
continuity. |
