The Oliphant sisters--Miranda, Lulu and Leggy--spend every summer at their family's run-down Great Camp in the Adirondacks built by their great-great grandfather, back when the family was prosperous. As much as the girls look forward to time away from their New York City all-girls school, the tedium of an entire summer enjoying unspoiled nature, with no wireless connection anywhere, is more than they can bear. This summer their parents, Professor and Judge Oliphant, are busy with work and have handed them over to their kind but absentminded Aunt Ariel, who provides even less structure than their parents. Miranda daydreams about redecorating their moldy, book-filled camp; Lulu hungers for competitive sports; and Leggy, the littlest Oliphant, drives everyone crazy with her constant talk of fairies. When their odious cousins arrive unexpectedly, bringing with them all the tensions the girls thought they had left behind for the summer, the girls, who were each adopted from China, fight for their place in the family and for their beloved summer home. They discover that being an Oliphant brings lots of surprises.

Bleuette is a nine-year-old French girl in 1905. She is based on the French porcelain doll of the same name that debuted in a French magazine in 1905. Bleuette comes from a family of moderate means, but her class mates thinks she's from a well off family because she always has new dresses. When she's invited to a fancy birthday party by the richest girl in class, she can't wait to go and see the fancy house. But will the girl learn she is just the daughter a seamstress and withdraw the invitation?

The story begins with the siege of the Duke of Dyfed’s castle, where the king and a small band of adherents have fled after Huw Griffin attacks the royal palace. Two teenagers, Geraint and Bronwen, take the young prince to safety. The castle falls and after the murders of their parents and their aunt and uncle, it is left to the young Duke of Dyfed, and his sister Bronwen, to preserve the country of Rogarth for the weak boy-king. They struggle against Griffin, who wishes the throne for himself. Geraint slowly builds up an opposing army aided by his father’s old warrior chief, Owain. Justin Lord Rutland, a young man of similar age to Geraint, also comes to his aid and they become great friends. Justin, at first suspicious of Bronwen’s combat skills, comes to know and respect her and falls in love with the beautiful healer. They come to discover unknown powers, love and betrayal, while fighting for the new boy king.
