A chance encounter one night introduces our hero, Walter Allbones, to the beautiful Eugenia and her grandfather, Pitford, a natural scientist and collector of rare birds. Allbones is a ferretwhisperer, so to speak, and Pitford recruits him to collect a bunch of ferrets for export. Within months of their meeting, the three embark upon a perilous voyage that will produce dramatic and unexpected results. Mr. Allbones' Ferrets is an enchanting historical novel with a tender love story at its center.
