Struck down by shingles, Cleo Byng postpones her wedding and heads north to recuperate in her annoying Cousin Henry's house, in the wintry Eyotshire village of Hazard.
But Haphazard House turns out to be a dilapidated Elizabethan building with few amenities and a strange, musical pair who have been in residence for rather more than the usual life span. Joined by a wild friend, visited by a handsome ghost hunter, and then sent an SOS from Budapest by her old schoolfriend Prue, Cleo soon finds her convalescence far more lively than the doctor ordered in this coruscating tale of marriage, misalliance and misunderstanding.
A wickedly amusing, sometimes outrageous and enchantingly amoral story.
