How many secrets can a house hold? Architect Lumière initially only wanted to buy a house of his own, but this led him into a series of bizarre mysteries. A dilapidated old house in a wealthy Parisian neighborhood, a strange Swiss sanatorium, a spectacle of light appearing only at specific times, a diary written upside down, stair railings of inconsistent heights, the aroma of tea hidden in doorknobs, a xylophone playing in the rain... a secret spanning nearly a century, a healing miracle transcending life and death. It turns out that all the "unusual" things were about love and protection. The story of this book begins with a house and ends with the people who love each other living within it.
