Publisher's Synopsis
From the rough streets of South Boston, the Mahoney family believed all their dreams had come true when they found an affordable home in the affluent town of Middlebridge, Connecticut. But there's a reason the house was so cheap... It's haunted. But not by ghosts. Somewhere below it, deep in the underground granite caves, is a snake hibernacula, the winter home of upwards of half a million sleeping garter snakes. It's now April. The sun is out. The ground is thawing. The snakes are waking up.So? Big deal! They're just harmless little garter snakes, right?That's what the Mahoneys tried to tell themselves.As the cohabitants move out of the caves and the into the house, the family struggles to keep it together under the strain of a countless number of very unwelcome houseguests. Creepy and harrowing while at the same time sweet and hilarious, Harmless Little Garter Snakes is a story of family unity, love, perseverance, and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of snakes.
