Turning Point

In this thirteenth book in the Massenden Series by the Kentish author Emma Berry we catch up once again with the well loved characters who inhabit the quintessentially Wealden village of Massenden.  

Seth Jackson-Smith was sitting astride his bay horse Robbie Burns, gazing across the valley in the heart of the beautiful Weald of Kent. He glanced down at the old water mill, which sat proudly amongst a wealth of massive oak trees, its wheel turning ceaselessly, splashing through the old mill pond, urging him towards a turning point and the new life he and his three children were destined to lead sheltered by the walls of the recently restored mill. 

As his horse pawed the ground – then gave a deep whinny, Seth glanced to the top of the hill. A pony with a hogged mane was prancing over the summit. He immediately recognised Oscar West’s effervescent pony Hanky Panky but there was no sign of Oscar, instead a beguiling Welsh witch with the name of Myfanwy Hughes was cantering towards him, as behind him the old wheel continued its ceaseless rotation urging him forwards.
