Storm In The Village: Volume III of The Fairacre Chronicles: Trouble brews in the tiny English country village of Fairacre when it is discovered that Farmer Miller’s Hundred Acre Field is slated for real estate development. Alarming rumors are circulating, among them the fear that the village school may close. As the schoolmistress, Miss Read is involved but she also has more personal problems to deal with: her junior teacher Miss Jackson's passion for an unsuitable man; the niceties of defining categories for the upcoming flower show; and the ever-leaking (and finally collapsing) skylight in the schoolhouse - and that's just a few of them! Tyler's Row: Volume IX of The Fairacre Chronicles: Miss Read heard about the sale of Tyler's Row from Mrs Pringle - and before long Fairacre was alive with rumours. Why were the present owners selling? Was it true that a football pools winner was about to buy it? Had Tyler's Row been condemned, or was it to be restored? The speculation ends when Peter and Diane Hale arrive in Fairacre with plans to create their own rural haven - but they soon discover that Fairacre is not Utopia, but a normal English village with all the usual ups and downs.
