This is the fifth book in the War Eagle River series. A view inside the parsonage and of the involvement of a large yellow cat that adopted the minister and his wife. The young minister's wife is a granddaughter of the minister who founded the town church. She learned that while ministers are called of God, that does not necessarily hold true for his wife. As the wife of the minister, she is also "hired" to do anything that needs doing, regardless of her experience in that field. She also finds herself in the position of advising as to whether God "approves" of this or that. And when the school teacher has the mumps... Well, it's all in the book. Author Joann Ellen Sisco perfectly captures the voice and soul of the southern Ozarks. People are people, no matter where they are, but the subtle culture and expression of language is unique to a place and time and no one masters this better for this distinctive section of America than Sisco.
