Harper is a typical boy, born to an unusual family - but not exceptionally so. When an ordinary day ends in disaster, he is banished from home in the town to live with an eccentric relative in the country, to save him from moral decline. Harper soon discovers that the rambling cottage that is his new home has much more to it than meets the eye. His young life is turned upside down by the Wighorns, the other-wordly creatures that also inhabit the cottage. Harper’s tomfoolery finds him up before Judge and a motley jury, some of whom have sinister intentions towards him. Harper has a lawyer, Domble-bluff but he is more interested in his own reputation than Harper’s liberty, and the sleepy Judge is no comfort. Will Harper be reconciled to his parents at last and while he waits in hope, will his madcap adventures continue - untrammeled by the Wighorns? E. S.
