"Who are you? You're familiar to me."

A tree has appeared unexpectedly in the whimsical little town of Laplace, where the locals take inordinate pride in their gossip, their diner, and their modern wifi. Nobody knows what kind of tree it is, but they wonder about the woman who has burst into town, intent on clearing the space on the town square.

Mary Claudia wants the tree gone. She's come all this way to Laplace for her own purposes, and she doesn't care what the town thinks. The tree's bulky roots and odd fruit only keep getting in her way.

Something else stands in her way - the owner of Herbs and Melodies, the new shop that abruptly sprang into existence in the ruins of an abandoned old furniture store. Tim Collin turns up everywhere. The man is disturbing, disruptive, yet the locals adore him.

Tim mysteriously seems to know all about her plans for the town, far more than any stranger should. Is he friend, foe, or something else altogether?

A swift, breathless, magical tale for lovers of fairytales, Under Milkwood, and other surreal things.
