When Roland's daughter and his wife Berdine disappear into thin air right in front of his eyes in his own back yard he is shocked. When his eccentric old neighbor comes around and tells him his family has been taken to Elfland he is skeptical at first, but he will go there if he must and face the Goblin King to get his family back. (This story is a modern retelling of an old English folktale.)White Crest is a work of fiction that is in essence, a love story that involves many twists and turns. Mackenzie Mason is a single, stressed-out, professional woman in desperate need of some time off. She finally takes the long needed break and while on that vacation, makes a new friend, deals with a stalker and works a jigsaw puzzle with extraordinary properties that changes her life forever. She also finds a way to light the dark loneliness of her life. It is difficult to nail down an exact genre, because of the several literary tactics employed. As stated, it is ultimately a love story devoid of explicit sexual content, that involves intrigue, suspense, danger and a bit of supernatural assistance. To quote Betsy Palmer, (retired celebrity), "It was an exceptionally descriptive book that once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down until I was done."
