The gentle Mr Harding finds his peaceful life disrupted when his would be son-in-law John Bold calls into question the large income he receives as warden of Barchester Alms House.

Mr Harding's daughter Eleanor is equally shocked and upset by her suitor's actions.

So she sets out to discover why the man she loves wants to injure someone as well respected and loved as her mild mannered father?

Another of Anthony Trollope's much-loved satirical stories of provincial life.

Set in the fictional town of Barchester and surrounding county of Barsetshire.
