    Summary

    Nobody in Shipbourne was quite sure what to make of it when Rebecca Mannion, now Welton, had sent Rupert packing and installed herself at Fairlawne full time. And there had been as close as a sleepy Kent village gets to an uproar when word got around that Rebecca had plans to completely make over Fairlawne’s working farmland with new and experimental agricultural practices.

    Several years down the line, most people had to admit that the updates weren’t as bad as they feared. Yes, the hydroponic tents were a bit of an eyesore, but careful positioning and a new grove of fast-growing poplar trees meant that people would really have to go out of their way to be offended by the sight of them. And the rest of Rebecca’s changes aren’t disruptive at all. In fact, they’re rather brilliant, as far as Keeley understands it.

    More interestingly, to Keeley, is the fact that since Rebecca’s been running the show, the people who have shown up in Shipbourne to work on the estate make village life a lot more exciting than it otherwise might have been.
