It was published in 1998 by Harcourt, and received positive reviews from ''Publishers Weekly'' and ''School Library Journal''. This book is about a family (Horatio Alger Huntington-Ackerman, a successful businessman, who was rich but miserable until he moved to his new home which he named Eclipse; Mousey Huntington-Ackerman/Malone, who was a striving actress, has a squeaky, quiet voice and wide smile; Sandy (Alexander) Huntington, and the butler Bentley, and the butler's wife Flossie) living in the country with no neighbors except the crazy people at Walnut Manor. Their son named Sandy realized his parents are put suddenly into a coma along with his pet chicken and Flossie by his uncles with a poisoned cake. His uncles, Bart and Bernie, are trying to kill his parents and steal Horatio's fortune, because they were greedy men, who were jealous of their brother's success, and of Sandy, his father's heir. After caring for his parents in his own home at Eclpse, Sandy was told by Bart and Bernie that his parents and Flossie were to be put in a place where a doctor could watch over them. So, he decides to send them to the Walnut Manor. He meets a young nurse named Sunnie Stone, whom he has hired to help him care for his parents. Before he knows it he has fallen in love with her. Sandy also soon realizes that the inmates at Walnut Manor aren't as crazy as they are made out to be. And as Sandy and Bentley begin to spend more time at the Manor, the more murder attempts Bart and Bernie try against not only Sandy and his butler, but everyone in the Manor. So, not only do they have to worry about saving Sandy's parents but they also all have to fear for their own well-being.
