From the front blurb: "Michael and Caroline Lambert have loved on another for seventeen years and they have loved their home, Hamble House, a farmhouse built in stone with a whitewashed brick facade. Hamble lies just below Melbury, an ancient hilltop town in the west country of England. Michael runs a bookshop in Melbury. Caroline is a painter. They have five children. From May to October is a random span in their lives. One summer. The sense of place is powerful, the sense of season vivid.".
