Any Fool Series - Book 5

In Any Fool Can Keep a Secret, James Robertson invites readers back to the whimsical world of a picturesque West Country village, where the local pub serves as the epicenter of gossip and intrigue. The narrative unfolds with the death of Joy Spontini and the unexpected return of her son, setting off a chain of events that includes the scandalous pregnancy of Prudence, daughter of Kelvin, who falls for the young Spontini. The village buzzes with tales of a giant ferox fish, the arrival of a bestselling American author researching her next novel, and the discovery of "gold" in a nearby river—all providing ample fodder for the community's ever-active rumor mill. Robertson's sharp wit and affectionate portrayal of rural eccentricities make this novel a delightful read for fans of British humor.
