註釋
"A setting reminiscent of Jan Karon's fictional village ... a feel-good novel with lots of heart." - Bookloons.com."Fraser's story is pleasantly easy reading and as smalltown cozy as they come." - Publishers Weekly.Just a dot on the map of the northwest, Lumby looms big in the hearts of its residents. The townsfolk consider each other family as well as friends. And though the annual cow race can bring out the competitiveness in people, when times get tough, there is no better person to turn to than your nearest neighbor.But the bucolic temperament of Lumby is thrown into turmoil when one of the most important paintings of the twentieth century, The Barns of Lumby, is stolen. Town matriarch Charlotte Ross has a very personal connection to the painting - and to the artist, Dana Porter. As a media frenzy descends on the little town, one of the actual barns disappears overnight from the rural landscape - and its pieces appear in the strangest places.
