About the Book

Vallivana Querol, octogenarian extraordinaire, former teacher and freedom fighter, from the small medieval Spanish town of Morella hasn't exactly slowed down her pace in the autumn of her life. Whilst trying to raise millions of euros for the refurbishment of her beloved school, she is also attending Town Hall meetings to vocally oppose the frivolous spending of taxpayer's money by the town's mayor. Charles Wrigglesworth - fifty-four-year old bachelor and head of languages at Eton, one of the most prestigious colleges in the world - is in Morella on the lookout for a suitable location for his planned residential Spanish courses for his students. A series of events brings the two of them together and changes their lives in ways they never thought possible.
