Passmore Series by Mark Alders

When the townsfolk of Passmore get wind of the fact their Vicar's new verger, Wilson Rooney, is gay, a series of events spark the start of both his and the Vicar's adventures when it comes to keeping the rather interesting flock of Passmore within the fold. Not only that, they'll have to gain the approval of the parish council before Wilson can be accepted. No small task when it's headed by one of the most conservative parish council leaders ever to have walked the face of God's green earth... moreWhen the townsfolk of Passmore get wind of the fact their Vicar's new verger, Wilson Rooney, is gay, a series of events spark the start of both his and the Vicar's adventures when it comes to keeping the rather interesting flock of Passmore within the fold. Not only that, they'll have to gain the approval of the parish council before Wilson can be accepted. No small task when it's headed by one of the most conservative parish council leaders ever to have walked the face of God's green earth. Can the vicar get Wilson accepted into the community? Or will his efforts result in a disaster that will divide the town they have been trying to keep together since the decline in population has hit them hard. Time will tell, but not before love blooms in the most unexpected way and the Vicar uses some rather unorthodox methods to get his parishioners to see the light about Wilson and his lifestyle choice. less

This time, Christmas is fast approaching so not only does the seasonal calendar need to be organized and presents bought, but with the help of the Vicar and all the Parish Council, the main Christmas event has to be planned—the unveiling of the new town statue.

This time, Christmas is fast approaching so not only does the seasonal calendar need to be organized and presents bought, but with the help of the Vicar and all the Parish Council, the main Christmas event has to be planned—the unveiling of the new town statue. Oh my. Sure, the town may have got over the fact Wilson and the doctor are a couple, but if everything goes right—and it never will—they may not forget this Christmas. Let's just say, everything possible will be done to stop this Christmas from making the Sydney Gay Mardi Gras look like Mother Teresa’s picnic for good girls. Even so, Christmas this year will certainly be different in Passmore. Can Wilson and Edmund survive the festive season? Can the town? And what surprise does Edmund have in store for Wilson that will turn his world upside down? less
