North has only met them once, leaving them in the care of a string of nannies in their creepy Victorian mansion imported from England by the children’s ancestor. North immediately offers a proposition she convinces herself she can’t refuse: $10,000 if she will spend a month in the wilds of southern Ohio caring for two orphaned children, distant relatives for whom he’s had responsibility since their Aunt May’s death two years earlier. Now that she’s engaged to a nice writer, she drops by North’s office to return the years of alimony checks she never cashed. Ten years ago Andie met, married and divorced love of her life North because he put his Columbus, Ohio, law career ahead of their marriage.
Crusie ( Agnes and the Hitman, 2007, etc.) returns with a romantic comedy cum ghost story with facetious nods to Henry James and Daphne du Maurier.
