- This story tells of the unravelling of a mystery. The heroine, a small girl called Penelope, feels that there is some strange secret about Marvell's Folly from the moment that she goes to stay in the old house with her invalid cousin. "Queer things happen by moonlight and the owl's cry," the old gardener warned her, and as the summer passes events become more and more intriguing and very certainly queer.
