Overview
The green and golden beauty and the eternal atmosphere of `Avielochan' is the background of this delightful story. Mrs. Tim goes to the Highlands of Scotland and is involved in a plot to rescue a naval officer from the toils of a siren; but, alas, the best laid plans `gang aft agley'. The characters are skillfully drawn, from the fierce Mrs. London with her heart of gold to the garrulous Mrs. Falconer who always gets things wrong and whose muddled stories of her girlhood make excruciatingly funny reading. The house party amuses itself with picnics and fishing excursions and is suitably thrilled by the flourishing ancestral feud of two rival clans, which has its origin in the dim past. Mrs. Tim observes her fellow men and women with sympathy and humor and records her observations with a racy pen. The result is an attractive and witty story of an unusual character.
