Haard, the house fairy of a very old cottage, has a problem. For centuries he and the people who lived in the cottage worked together to tend the house and the gardens that surround it. But now a woman is moving into the old cottage who cannot see, hear or even feel his presence. How can he communicate with her? He must figure this out soon, for the woman and her husband have big plans for the cottage — plans that will certainly disrupt the fairy world that lives there.
