However hard Mrs Tim strives for seamless living amidst the other army wives, she is always moving flat-out to remember groceries, rule lively children, side-step village gossip and placate her husband with bacon, eggs, toast and marmalade.

Once pen is set to paper no affairs of the head or heart are overlooked.

Against the wild landscape of surging rivers, sheer rocks and rolling mists, who should stride into Mrs Tim's life one day but the dashing Major Morley, hellbent on pursuit of our charming heroine. And Hester will soon find that life holds unexpected crossroads... _______________________ Mrs Tim of the Regiment is part of The Bloomsbury Group, a new library of books from the early twentieth century chosen by readers for readers
