Aunt Sally is beyond any of Melissa, Amanda, and Pee Wee's expectations. She has come all the way from Vancouver Island, Canada, to take care of the children while their parents are away, and right from the start, Aunt Sally enchants them with tales of her childhood with their father. Odd characters figure largely in the stories, like Maud, a hunter rumored to have killed eighty cougars; Great-uncle Louis, a health nut who insists everyone should gnaw on sticks for extra fiber; and Fat Little Mean Girl, the star of a cautionary tale involving witchcraft and candy. All of Aunt Sally's reminiscences lead up to a crucial story about trolls, sinister creatures who supposedly lurked along the shore at night. The trolls had the power to change Aunt Sally's life forever, and their legacy may change the lives of the three present-day children as well.

If you ever met a Troll, you would know it. They are short hairy creatures with large noses and huge ears. But this is unlikely to happen because they are very shy, and live only in the remote parts of Norway. Despite what you may of heard Trolls are intelligent, agile and generous, at least to their own kind. Living in the woods in log cabins, hunting and fishing, they keep themselves to themselves and rarely venture far from home. At least they used too. They still live in Norway but now only in the North, inhabiting caves, tunneling deep underground, excavating vast caverns, digging a labyrinth of tunnels, and are now rarely ever seen above ground. Why? ……. because of the Dragons. A tale of Trolls and Dragons, from Norway to the very heart of London, from ancient times to the present day.
