Product Description

Product Description
When Kate worked at the Barleybridge Practice, she had thought herself in love with Scott. But that was years ago and she is over him now ? or so she thinks. When she returns to the Practice, she is alarmed to discover that suddenly, yet again, she is completely besotted with him. Some things at the Practice have changed: there's a new vet, Virginia, who seems to go out of her way to criticise and upset Kate, not to mention upsetting the clients. But Virginia is not all she seems. Scott, very much in love with his wife Zoe, hates the idea that they have not yet had a second child. Convinced that the fault is not his, he refuses to seek help. The ensuing rows with Zoe drives a wedge between them. Will he look to someone else for comfort? Kate hopes that he might...

4.0 out of 5 stars Back down the Country Lane, 23 Aug 2007
By Joanne D'Arcy (Portsmouth, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: One Hot Country Summer (Hardcover)
It has been a while since I picked up the Barleybridge tale from Rebecca Shaw, but her latest novel reminded me of all the wonderful characters within the vetinary practice. I do feel you have to have read the previous novels to pick up the tale with this book, coming to this first will only confuse you and you will certainly not get the raw passion and love between Scott and Kate and the unconditional love of Mungo and Miriam. There are new characters, the main one being 'Virginia' who we see transform, after finding someone to share her life with after very tragic circumstances, of which I would have never guessed, and normally I am quite good at that. Ellie is also another character who has you just wanting to scream and shout with sheer exasperation regarding what she was doing in getting to Val. By the end I felt sorry for Val, considering his actions (I won't reveal what) and really hope this thread is picked up again in future books and carried on with, a bit like the Scott and Kate relationship. No doubt we will have to wait a couple of years for the next instalment and I hope when I pick it up, it is just as easy to slip into their lives again, and watch as an observer, like putting on an old comfy pair of slippers.

3.0 out of 5 stars The Jury's Out............, 7 Jul 2008
The Turnham Malpas novels are really good, but I find these books about the veterinary practice to be a bit shallow and weak. The characters have no depth, especially in this latest one, and talk to each other, and act towards in each other in a completely false way. Maybe because the books are relatively short the author doesn't feel it necessary to get into the bones of each character, but it makes for very frustrating reading. Pad them out a bit, Rebecca, and let us know what they're thinking and feeling. Give them all a bit of oomph!

As I am an avid reader of Rebecca Shaw, I thoroughly enjoyed this book, I had read it before, borrowed from the library, now I have my own copy to keep.
Thankyou.
