In "Somewhere Safe with Somebody Good," Mitford's engaging locals are back, from retired Episcopal priest Father Timothy Kavanagh and his intuitive wife Cynthia, to his loyal canine companion, Barnabas, and an eclectic mix of friends, neighbors and long-lost family. Now a few years into retirement, seventy-something Father Tim is feeling a bit unsettled, "trying to hammer out what retirement is for" while struggling with the realities of this new role. After a lifetime devoted to fixing things, he's at loose ends and afraid he's lost his passion. Part love story, part calming character study, "Somewhere Safe with Somebody Good" is an enchanting reminder of the shared values that hold communities together if we open our hearts and embrace them.
