Synopsis: Dust Jacket: The seventeenth century Crosby's inn on the peninsula of Cape Cod is the setting for this unusual story of the occult, in which the bizarre, the tragic, and the comic are fused into a tale about time itself. There is Pamela, the beautiful spoilt golden-haired baby, who grows up to marry her prince but not to live happily ever after. There is the Romeo and Juliet love story of Josiah and Amy and there is Sarah Crosby herself, who is gently described through the eyes of the narrator. Behind them stalk a parade of ghosts, such as the jovial sea captain Obediah and the Indian Prince Flying Buzzard. With her ghostly band, the author orchestrates her central theme - the story of Pamela and Ruppert Von Braun - into a hauntingly beautiful novel.
