Father Tim, the longstanding Episcopal priest in Mitford, retires in A New Song. But when he accepts to take on the role of temporary pastor of a little church on Whitecap Island, he opens himself up to new experiences and difficulties. He and his spouse, Cynthia, quickly discover that Whitecap has its own noteworthy personalities: an organist from a church with an enigmatic history, a lonely bachelor posting personal advertisements, and a mother grappling with crippling depression. Additionally, they discover that Mitford is always around in case things "back home" keep their phone ringing nonstop. Fans of the cherished series, both new and old, will learn that a vacation to Mitford and Whitecap is twice as wonderful for the soul in this fifth book.
