"In the sleepy town of Dingley Falls, Conneticut, something funny is going on. Strange forces are pulling together the oddest of couples: a mild-mannered matron and a lascivious avant-garde poet; a sleek headmaster and a shy young curate; a hippie librarian and the wayward daughter of a local tycoon. What's more, mailboxes are being stuffed with shockingly violent hate letters, and an aged town doctor worries about biological warfare as a mysterious ailment takes the lives of perfectly healthy people. Not to mention those strange lights from a secret base flashing in the depths of the forest...

With a sparkling range of characters whose live intricately and often hilariously cross over a single week, Michael Malone offers us a sublime joyride in his classic novel.

Once you've visited Dingley Falls and met its wacky population of unlikely heroes, bumbling villians and oddly endearing supporting cast, one thing is certain: you'll never forget it."
