'Niemand houdt van een kleverige aap.' Als zelfverklaard Wachter van Kasteel Anderhand is de oude raaf Edgar ongerust als hij een afgrijselijke zwarte staart ziet wegglijden onder de rabarberplanten. Wanneer het kasteel ook nog begint te overstromen en keukenmeiden spoorloos verdwijnen, weet hij dat er Onheil op komst is. Maak kennis met de vreemde familie van Anderhand: graaf Daldruif, zijn vrouw Muntje, de tweelingbroertjes Gruis en Bruis, de tienjarige Viltkruid, zijn troeteldier Gozer (de kleverige aap), en zijn grote zus, de zwartharige, beeldschone Zonnewendy. Wanneer ze oog in oog komen te staan met de eigenaar van de zwarte staart, beseft Edgar dat de taak om het kasteel te redden op zijn vleugels rust.
