Product Details

A lodge appears to attract a disparage cast of residents complete with dark and colorful pasts.

When Mabel, a former Vaudeville performer, lands a job managing a boarding house on the ocean, she appears to attract a disparate cast of lodgers, all with unfortunate and dark lives.

The lodgers include:

  • Two queens, old thespian friends of Mabel’s who live in the basement with a peppercorn rent.
  • Therese, a pregnant Irish girl banished to England by her mother who assumes she is in an unmarried mothers’ home in the care of the nuns.
  • Irene, a recovering alcoholic who has a sister Judy who, due to a trauma experienced during the war is unable to speak.
  • Arthur, an aged army major, had a son Ned who was shot for desertion.
  • Harry, alias Percy, a con man and felon who befriends the landlady, Mabel.

When Therese moves to the Outback to get married, Judy follows and one day Judy spots a Kookaburra in a nearby tree. When the bird laughs, an unexpected, wonderous miracle happens.
