The elderly Granny Fuddle has been told by her doctor that "it's time to gather your family around you". She charges her grandson Guy with tracking down her four granddaughters - Cassie, Madeleine, Joyce, and Roxanne.
Joyce is a novice nun who is convinced she has a calling. When Guy turns up to convince her to return home, her Mother Superior is more than willing to let her go - much more willing than Joyce is to leave.
All four of Granny Fuddle's granddaughters return home to Fuddlewitch on the appointed day, but what are Granny's real motives in insisting on their return?
