And young Ashley Kaldis has come to find her roots, and learns that the town's fortunes turned when her grandmother was crowned Apple Queen - then mysteriously disappeared. Widowed Nell Westray hopes for a quiet life of gardening in the place where she and her husband spent their happiest moments. Enchanted by Appleton's famously ornate, gold-domed library, divorcee Kathleen Mullaroy has left her cosmopolitan job to start anew as the town's head librarian. And outsiders are still drawn to the charming village, including three very different American women. Now, though the orchards are long gone, locals still dream of the town's glory days, when an Apple Queen was crowned at the annual fair and good luck seemed a way of life.

Now, as the town teeters on the edge of decline, the old rituals have been forgotten and the mists are rolling in.
