Charlotte "Lottie" Fiske is an orphaned girl living on Albion Island off the coast of Boston. She lives in a boarding house known as Thirsby Square with Mrs. Yates, the landlady. Her only friends are Eliot, a boy who's constantly sick, and a mysterious letter writer who responds to any/all messages she leaves in a copper box at the foot of the apple tree on the front lawn of Thirsby Square.

One day, after discovering Eliot hasn't been at school that much lately, Lottie goes to his home, the Barmey Badger (a store that Eliot's dad runs), to find out. Eliot's dad tells her he basically has two-to-three weeks left to live. In desperation not to lose her friend, Lottie begs her mysterious letter writer to cure him of his illness. Then, she meets a strange girl named Adelaide who takes her through the apple tree into a world of fairies, where her father is working on a supposed cure for pretty much everything. He just needs one more missing ingredient.

Of course, nothing is as simple as that. Soon enough, Adelaide's father is apprehended, and now Lottie, Adelaide and her brother, Oliver, and a friend of theirs, Fife, have to make a journey to appeal for Adelaide's father's freedom.
