| Summary, etc.: | "Wendell Combs is as local as they come. Born and raised in the small town of Saybrook, Connecticut, his venture into the larger world was met with heartbreak. Now, middle-aged and a confirmed bachelor, he seeks solitude from his tour of duty as a soldier back in his hometown, working as head caretaker for wealthy Alan Lancaster's forty-acre estate, White Pines, a place he has come to love for its beauty, peace, and quiet. Alan's eldest daughter, fifteen-year-old Julia, also loves White Pines, but for very different reasons.
