Perhaps there's not only mischief in Mill-Upon-Mortlake... Could friendship and romance between a brash London lady and an old-fashioned country gentleman bloom as well?In this collection, you'll receive two full novels, Scandal Comes to Somerset and Silent Night in Somerset. Can Daphne and Mr. Gainsworth solve a scandalous disappearance that threatens to close the new village shop? Can they keep the Christmas panto running and find a missing silver heirloom before its disappearance is discovered?
