Summary:
Young Frances and Elsie say they've encountered the supernatural, they've met fairies. The photos the girls take of the winged beings put them at the center of a real-life controversy that sweeps England during World War I. Everyone is caught up in the excitement, including two of the era's most renowned men: Sherlock Holmes' author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and master illusionist Harry Houdini. Are the girls' photos real or a clever hoax?
