Description
When Geoff Notes, a young Methodist minister, is assigned the Yorkshire village of Gospel End for his first appointment, his heat sinks: to a boy from the London suburbs, Yorkshire seems the edge of the earth.
He and his publisher wife Sarah are horrified by what they find: a chapel bound by tradition, riddled with dry rot, locked in permanent opposition to the pub across the street.
