Young, attractive, a widow with a ten-year-old daughter - Venus Stanton was certainly not the vicar that the traditional parish of Thurston had been expecting. The village was agog, the congregation surprised and in some cases not at all pleased. Venus - a name wished on her by her otherwise conventional parents, and which she felt wholly inappropriate for a woman priest - had to endure curiosity, misunderstandings and even downright hostility. But she also found warmth, friendship and kindness - sometimes from the most unexpected quarters.Still mourning the death of her husband, and having to cope with the problems of single parenthood, Venus began to think that she would never manage the task she had set herself. Perhaps the doubters were right - she was not suited to be a vicar, to care for the souls of the parish. But the handsome local doctor thought otherwise, and so did many others who came to regard her not only as their priest but also their friend.

I den här boken möter du bonddottern Elvi från Östra Hinders i Önningeby. Hon berättar om vad som hände på gården under första världskriget då hundratals ryska soldater kom till byn. En officersfamilj flyttade in i hennes hem. Det är främst med hjälp av officerens bilder du får följa med till den spännande tiden. Elvi var visserligen god vän med de ryska barnen Panja och Kola, men hon blev glad när freden äntligen kom och allt återgick till det normala.I boken blandas muntlig tradition och verkliga händelser med fantasi. Det är en fascinerande berättelse som levandegör livet i Önningeby under första världskrigets dagar. De flesta personerna i boken har funnits i verkligheten och det mesta kunde ha hänt på riktigt.Författaren Kjell Ekström är även konstnär och den drivande kraften bakom Önningebymuseet. Han har utgivit en stor mängd böcker om Önningebykolonin och dess konstnärer, egna konstböcker samt de kritikerrosade böckerna om Alarik och Siri.

Rauha Räppääjän jalka nyrjähtää ja hän joutuu petiin. Risto kysyy: ”Kuka minulle nyt laittaa ruokaa?” Rauha hälyttää apuun serkkunsa Elvi Räppääjän, eläkkeellä olevan pakastaja-pussittajan. Elvi majoittuu keittiöön ja yrittää saada uudenlaisen komennon Räppääjien huusholliin. Hän päättää muun muassa tuhota kaikki pieneliöt, joita olettaa Räppääjillä pesivän (täitä Riston päässä ja pölypunkkeja patjoissa). Mutta onko Elvi pelkkä touhottava huusholli-ihminen? Risto kuulee keittiöstä öisin kummallista keskustelua. ”Könistetään sitten kunnolla, niin saadaan koko rahasäkki”, Elvi supattaa. Risto ryhtyy selvittämään naapurin Nellin kanssa Elvin salaisia suunnitelmia. Kenen kanssa Elvi yön tunteina puhuu? Miksi hän käyttää ihmisistä peitenimiä? Keitä ovat ”Huuhkaja”, ”Kanavaras” ja ”Mustekala”? Ehtivätkö Risto ja Nelli paljastaa Elvin aikeet ennen kuin tapahtuu jotakin outoa?
