description: Phoebe Beecham's father is the Dissenting minister of a large, wealthy London chapel. (Her mother, born Phoebe Tozer of Carlingford, was a character in an earlier Carlingford novel Salem Chapel). Phoebe "Junior" is well educated, and has been raised to have the manners of a lady. When she goes on a long visit to her shop-keeper grandparents in Carlingford (also characters from Salem Chapel), she expects she must adjust to their lower station in life.However, Phoebe finds a social circle which combines Anglican gentry (Ursula May and her brother Reverend Reginald May, whose father is the Perpetual Curate of St. Roque) with Dissenters (millionaire's son Clarence Copperhead and Non-Conformist minister Horace Northcote). These five young adults each have issues to deal with; and they find a new happiness in coming together.Phoebe, Junior is the last of seven works set in the delightful country town of Carlingford.Free download of all seven works in the series can be found here: Chronicles of Carlingford
