Book Synopsis
Life is the strangest thing. One minute, Mrs Elner Shimfissle is up a tree, picking figs to make jam, and the next thing she knows, she is off on a strange adventure, running into people, in the unlikeliest of places. Meanwhile, a dark secret emerges from the past - and the entire town is left wondering, 'What's life all about anyway?'
