Now released from the : a tale of wartime intrigue and personal enmity in a quiet English parish. The story of the Church of England vicar denounced by his own congregation as a fascist and a friend of Hitler. Did the Reverend really preach a pro-Hitler sermon from his pulpit? Did he try to persuade the children of the village that the Fürher was one of the greatest men who ever lived? And did he harbour not one but two Gestapo agents?

Alas, for fans of wartime thrillers, it seems that the whole thing turned out to be a storm(trooper) in a teacup. Another vicar -- who was a former friend of Mr Tibbs -- appears to have suffered from a form of vindictive gabbiness. But what about this for a reference from the vicar's bishop at the time: "Mr Tibbs is, in my opinion, a foolish, slippery-tongued fellow, but a harmless one."
