When it comes to general practicalities, Miss Mildred Percy is the standard. She looks after her sisters' children, keeps to herself, and never does anything out of the ordinary. However, all of that is about to change with the arrival of a letter.
When she is informed of an inheritance coming her way, she is unsure of what to expect. What she didn't expect was a large trunk full of random odds and ends – things that her uncle apparently treasured, but she was unsure as to why he thought of leaving them to her. Truth be told, she was not even sure she remembered much about the gentleman.
Nestled in the trunk, there was a large stone – but she is about to discover that it is more than just an odd piece of rock – it is an egg. A dragon egg to be exact.
With the arrival of a dragon, she is drawn into a friendship and conspiratorial silence with the village vicar, who is helping her to hide Fitz, the beloved dragon, and his darling housekeeper, who is helping to feed the new arrival.
She is about to discover that there is more to this inheritance than she figured and learns a few things about herself as well.

Oh, my goodness! I absolutely LOVED this book! I had a tough time putting it down, although life did intervene enough to make me impatient to get back to reading. This is one book that I highly recommend. It is a fabulous adventure, and I look forward to reading the next book in the series (which is currently sitting in my audible cart), to learn more about this grand adventure that is beginning.
