At the request of his father, New York City novelist
Andrew Thale tackles an odd assignment--to check out an old
family property in Massachusetts, neglected since Aunt Harriet
Thale's death years ago. But far from being deserted, Thale's
Folly, as Andrew discovers, is fully inhabited--by a quartet of
charming squatters, former guests of kindhearted Harriet. There
is elegant Miss L'Hommedieu, Gussie the witch, Leo the
bibliophile, and beautiful Tarragon, who is unlike any girl
Andrew has ever met in Manhattan. Andrew is entranced by these
unworldly creatures and their simple life. Yet all is not well
in Thale's Folly. A thief breaks into the farmhouse, an old
friend of the family disappears, and Andrew and Tarragon are
drawn into mysteries they cannot fathom. . . .
