A life lived in fear is a life half lived,' Clementine Hope's sister, Ophelia, is fond of quoting to her. Clementine lives in a small Hampshire town, teaching music and working on a collection of fairy tales left to her by her Great Aunt Elvia. But mostly she worries. She worries about the rising crime rate, about disease and illness, about offending God and, in the rare moments when she is at peace with Him, about upsetting the man in the carpet shop or Mrs Challis who runs the cafe where she meets with her friend Jessica. Then, at a moment of real crisis, Clementine sees the destructive quality of fear, and she resolves to change and to make amends. To do so, she must turn from Damsel in Distress into Knight Errant, slay her personal dragon, and rescue Prince Charming in the process.
