In This Mountain

Millions of Americans have discovered in Mitford a favorite home-away-from-home. In the seventh novel, Father Tim and Cynthia are back home in Mitford, where they find change in the air: a haircut price war that takes no prisoners, a risky new menu item at the Grill. In her seventh inspirational novel in the bestselling Mitford series, Jan Karon delivers surprises of every kind, including the return of the man in the attic and an ending that no one in Mitford will ever forget. In the little town that's home-away-from-home to millions of readers, life hums along as usual. Dooley looks toward his career as a vet; Joe Ivey and Fancy Skinner fight a haircut price war that takes no prisoners; and Percy steps out on a limb with a risky new menu item at the Main Street Grill.

Though Father Tim dislikes change, he dislikes retirement even more. As he and Cynthia gear up for a year-long ministry across the state line, a series of events sends shock waves through his faith--and the whole town of Mitford.
