Summary

Our story opens on the Scottish west coast, late in 1889. Though five people (Big Folk) are abducted by the underworldly Good Folk of Netherdoone, this novel is not without elements of comedy. An opportunity to escape arrives when the Good Folk’s annual gathering is plunged into chaos, with unexpected help coming from some crazed pigs, two ferocious weasels, and a Good Folk who has grown disenchanted with life in Netherdoone. The mysterious past of one of the Big Folk (Edward) is revealed amidst dramatic scenes on Christmas Day morning. Meanwhile, the life of the MacLennox family, whose two daughters have disappeared, is in utter disarray. Other characters the reader will meet include the hapless King Kenspeckle of Netherdoone and his intimidating little wife; Tom Weaver, whose ambition has been to meet Good Folk; the well-meaning Captain of the Guard; and the Treble twins, surely the nastiest inhabitants of Netherdoone.
