This is a sweet ghost story that takes place in the 1950's in France. Two spirits who lived originally in the time of the Franco -Prussian war of 1870 return to help out some relatives in trouble.

The story is filled with delightful anachronisms as these visitors from the past have to learn to adapt and fit in so as not to call attention to themselves.
Charming book with English humor!
