Synopsis

In 1917, two young English girls—Frances Griffiths and Elsie Wright—capture a series of photographs that the world will come to believe depict real fairies in their Cottingley garden. The novel weaves together this historical mystery with a contemporary frame story set in 2017 as an artist named Sophie investigates the truth behind the famous images, blending wartime England's innocence with modern skepticism.
