For twenty years Anna Bouveries, as a priest’s wife had served God and the parish in a diversity of ways. She had organised the deanery suppers, made cakes for the Brownies’ Easter Cake Bake, delivered parish magazines, washed and ironed her husband’s surplices, grown her own vegetables and clothed herself and her children in left-over jumble-sale items.

Taking a job in the local supermarket she earned money, a sense of her own worth, the shocked disapproval of the parish, and the icy fury of her husband.
