Phillip Rock 
Passing Bells 
A Novel

Before Downton Abbey, there was Abingdon Pryory, the elegant country home of the Grevillesa titled English family who, along with their servants, see their world turned upside down when England goes to war. Once their well-kept lawns and whirling social seasons give way to the horrors of World War I, no one, upstairs or downstairs, is left untouched. For fans of sweeping historical fiction, the reissue of Phillip Rock’s New York Times bestseller The Passing Bells is a breathtaking family saga not to be missed.
