The arrival of novelist Kate Hardy at the lovely Dower House in Old Quinings, with her staunch ally and housekeeper Martha, has the whole village talking. But Kate is not in fact mad, merely in need of escape from her selfish sister Milly and spoiled niece Minty.

Though welcomed warmly by Richard Morven at the Manor House and the charming, widowed Mrs. Stack, Kate likewise finds herself taken for a witch and is then one of the targets of a poison pen campaign - not to mention the rumours that her new home is haunted by its past inhabitant. With the arrival of Mrs. Stack’s son Walter, back from his wartime triumphs and finding readjustment to village life difficult, Kate may find that the country allows her as little time for writing as London!
