Amelia wants her husband to get out of the business now that he is a father, but he refuses. Instead, Ageon performs a separation spell turning their fairy child into identical twins: one mortal and one fairy. Amelia takes the fairy infant Jared and moves to Wisconsin where she makes him behave as if he was human. Meanwhile his twin Zarrad is raised is raised by his father who wants him to wear fairy wigs and have pointed ears. Twenty four years later, Jared thinks his father and brother are dead. He is trying to reconcile with his human wife Mona whose sister the fairy Nona is dating the mortal Zarrad. When Mona and Jared go to Miami on a vacation where Zarrad and his father live, the brothers, not knowing of each other's existence, almost destroy their relationships with their women, who believe their significant others are crazy two timers. Taking a classic Abbott and Costello routine co-starring Martha Raye and by placing it inside a contemporary fantasy, it leads to one of the most humorous tales to come along in ages. Ageon, a fairy Mafioso type, doesn't ever realize that he is dealing with two completely different but identical twin offspring, one fairy and one human. The trouble that mistaken identities cause results in situations that will have readers in stitches. Rebecca Lickiss has written an enchanting A Comedy of Errors adult fairy tale. Harriet Klausner
