Festival in Prior's Ford (Prior's Ford Series) by Evelyn Hood
Hardback: Summer is approaching - and life is as eventful as ever at Prior's Ford.
When Tricia and Derek Borland bring home their baby daughter, their elderly neighbours are more than willing to help the new mother. But their enthusiasm begins to wane when it becomes apparent that Tricia is more interested in going out with her friends than looking after her new baby - and is only too ready to take advantage of their kindness.
Meanwhile, Lewis Ralston-Kerr and his fiancée Ginny are horrified by Ginny's flamboyant mother's determination to sweep aside their desire for a small village wedding and organise a large society affair.
What's more, the Prior's Ford Progress Committee have decided that the traditional village summer festival needs pepping up this year.
Festival in Prior's Ford (2013) is the seventh and latest instalment in the heartwarming Prior's Ford series.
About the author: A former journalist, Evelyn Hood is best known for family sagas mainly set in her home town of Paisley (Renfrewshire) and on the Clyde Coast, although she is also the author of 'Forward by Degrees', a history of the University of Paisley. The history was commissioned to mark the University's centenary as a place of further education and was published in April 1997.
Evelyn has also published six one-act stage plays, a Scottish pantomime, a children's musical and a number of short stories and articles. Unpublished but performed stage work includes a full length play, three pantomimes, six children's musicals, and a large number of monologues and sketches.
Her hobbies include reading and amateur drama, and she lives in West Kilbride, Ayrshire with her husband. They have two grown sons.
