Summary: Mystical Anglian fen country
Review: I read this book hoping that it would give me a glimpse into the workings and way of life of Anglian fen country in Britain.

From the onset one is transported into the world of Fan and William Burbage and the close-knit community of Old Swithinford. A delightful mix of passions, scandals, friendship and village gossip envelops the people of East Anglia. A final surprise awaits both the community and the reader alike with the arrival of a newcomer. A sequel to a Nest of Magpies this book is a true gem...transporting one into a world now almost forgotten to us in the 21st centuary.
