"Johnny, Steven, and Elizabeth McIntyre have returned to Skylark, Kansas, when their sister Lila informs them that their beloved Aunt Lucinda, who reared them from the time they were orphaned at an early age, has passed away. They must plan the funeral, and dispose of the estate. They were always forbidden to go to Blueberry Hill, and wondered what the secret or danger of the Hill was. There had been several offers to buy it, but their aunt had refused to sell. Johnny has persuaded Lila to return to Kansas City with him." [Publisher's synopsis]
