"If you enjoyed Jan Karon's Mitford series, I think you'll love the Dearest Dorothy series" (Christian Fiction Reviewer). On the outskirts of the pastoral Illinois town of Partonville, Illinois, eighty-seven-year-old Dorothy Wetstra lives on her farm, venturing out to drive around in her 1976 Lincoln Continental—affectionately dubbed "The Tank"—play bunco with her pals, or grab a stool at Harry's counter, where she can stay on top of the town's latest shenanigans (most of which she is responsible for). But when a visitor comes to town with a proposition, Dorothy finds herself faced with a decision that could change her beloved town, and her life. Before long, her gift for shaking things up may come in handy . . . This is the first in the delightful small-town series starring "the plucky 80-something grandma who's a demon at the wheel" (Publishers Weekly).
