Tales from Lindford, the (unexpected) fourth novel in the Lindchester Chronicles by Catherine Fox, finds the residents of Lindchester facing challenging times as 2020 unfolds . . .

‘Lyrical, compelling and full of insight. I found this very hard to put down.’ KATIE FFORDE, THE SUNDAY TIMES NO. 1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR ‘Catherine Fox writes with immense compassion, unsentimental faith and an impressively undisciplined humour.’ ROWAN WILLIAMS, FORMER ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY January 2020. Freddie, Father Dominic, Jane and all the other residents of Lindfordshire are celebrating the New Year with parties and resolutions. None of them is aware of the trials and tribulations the coming months will bring – not least the horseman of the apocalypse who has set out quietly, with barely a jingle of harness, in a distance province of China . . . Return to Lindchester once more with Tales from Lindford, the fourth in the beloved series of novels from Catherine Fox. Valiantly written in real time in the midst of the pandemic, this entertaining book captures the difficulties of 2020 with heart, humour and insight. Perfect for Lindchester fans, it’s also the ideal novel for anyone seeking comfort and a way of understanding all that has been happening. A twenty-first century Barchester that fans of Barbara Pym and the BBC’s Rev will love, this new volume in the Lindchester Chronicles is contemporary Christian fiction at its finest. Tales from Lindford will make you laugh, cry and leave you with hope that grace can be found even in the darkest times.

"What makes Realms of Glory such a delight is the humour, humanity and the strong characters . . . that come off the page and hang around in your head . . . This is not safe Christian fiction, because we don't live in a safe Christian world." - Christianity [on Realms of Glory]

"Unsure what to buy the Trollope devotee in your life for Christmas? Look no further than Catherine Fox’s Acts and Omissions and Unseen Things Above for a refresher course not only in cathedral politics, but also a set of profound, although lightly drawn, insights into the contemporary Anglican communion." - The Times Higher Education [on the first two volumes in The Lindchester Chronicles]
