More about the book
In the rustic town of Aldminster, a crisis looms. Funds are short and the cathedral is in need of major repair. Some hope to finance the work by abolishing the costly boy's choir-while others are aghast at the idea. Drawn into the fray is Sally Ashworth, the lonely mother of a ten-year-old chorister. She is anchored only by her unexpected love for the brilliant choirmaster-and by her young son, whose melodic voice may be the only thing that can unite a divided community. "Compelling." ( Boston Globe ) "Sacred music...and delicious deadpan understatement create a uniquely rich soundtrack on the pages of this beautifully crafted tale." ( Publishers Weekly , starred review)
