Qwilleran, Koko, and Yum Yum are hoping for a peaceful
month of July spent sitting on the porch of their cabin by
a lake in Mooseville. It's not so far from home - but far
enough away from the bustle and bustle of Pickax that
Qwill figures he might actually find some peace and quiet.
When rumors begin to circulate that UFOs are responsible
for the disappearance of a stray backpacker, whose body is
later discovered on the lakeshore, Qwill finds it
difficult to maintain "vacation" mode. Then, of course,
there's the knitting craze, which is attracting some very
unlikely members of the community, and some highly
innovative plans for this year's Fourth of July parade,
and a dog-cart race. Yet all of this is just par for the
course in slightly out-of-whack Moose County.... Things
become downright eerie when Koko begins to pass hours on
the porch in the dark, watching the sky for stars - or
something. And as the inexplicable goings-on get stranger
and stranger, Qwill starts to wonder who or what is in
fact responsible, if not extraterrestrial visitors.
