Publisher's Synopsis
In 1917, two girls from a village in England declared they had seen fairies and, to prove it, they presented photographs that caused such a commotion that, from that moment, many experts and specialists used them to defend their theories. One of those who expressed the most vehement opinion was Arthur Conan Doyle, then already known for his detective novels, who launched himself, like an inspector in a routine case, to gather evidence to document the case. Conan Doyle, of course, wanted to provide the general public with evidence in favor of fairies. The writer who, after the tragic death of several of his relatives, had abandoned Catholicism to become confessed of spiritualism, gathered all the possible testimonies, from letters, their own photos, statements of people and theosophical theories, to show the reader the evidence of an undoubtedly surprising phenomenon.
