In this sequel to The Princess and the Goblin, Curdie has returned to his life as a miner and has dismissed the supernatural happenings of the past, believing them to have been a dream. When Curdie callously wounds a pigeon, his conscience leads him to Princess Irene's mystical great-great-grandmother for help. She has him plunge his hands into a pile of rose petals that burns like fire. Extraordinarily, this grants him the power to see what kind of "animal" a person is at heart.
She then sends him on a quest, accompanied by a peculiar doglike creature named Lina, who was once a human. However, Curdie must resolve his own skepticism before he can use the powers granted him to defeat the evil that is threatening the future of the kingdom.

Det var en gång en prinsessa som inte ville leka. Hon hette Lise-Lotta. Hon hade ljust, lockigt hår, och blå ögon, som ju nästan alla prinsessor har. Hon hade ett helt rum alldeles fullt med leksaker. Där fanns de sötaste små dockmöbler och dockspisar med alldeles riktiga små kastruller och kaffepannor på, där fanns alla slags leksaksdjur, mjuka leksakskatter och lurviga leksakshundar, där fanns bygglådor och färglådor och målarböcker och en riktig leksaksaffär med russin och mandel och socker och karameller i lådorna. Och ändå ville inte prinsessan leka.
