Marcia Bailey is your typical 'frazzled English female protagonist.' She works in a small publishing agency, printing a niche agricultural quarterly journal, and a few cultivation and conference proceeding brochures. She lives alone; takes part in two book clubs; enjoys a myriad of hobbies; and the only male in her life is her beloved eight-year-old nephew. On her flight back home from an agricultural fair in Belgrade, Marcia's next seat neighbour, a charming Canadian named Miles, suddenly passes away, seemingly in his sleep. And he was so much more pleasant of a company than the grump in an overpriced coat who sat on her other side! As shocked as she is, Marcia can't help but take notice of the abundance of inconsistencies in this situation. What was a man like Dr. Christopher Dimitrakopoulos doing in the economy class of an battered Serbian plane? Who ransacked Marcia's flat on the next day, and what were they looking for? And more so, why would Dr. Dimitrakopoulos - a dishy renown neurosurgeon - be at all interested in having a cup of coffee with Marcia and repeatedly ask her out?

{ON HIATUS} Peggy Brown, a former Carmelite nun, is faced with a series of inexplicable events taking place in Bran House, a dilapidated manor that she agreed to help to restore to its former glory. The man who has recently come into the possession of the House is nothing but abrupt, sardonic, and impetuous; all according to the requirements of Gothic fiction. There are also presumable apparitions; two stalkers lurking in the shadows; stormy weather - and now Peggy found a dead body on the grand staircase! Is this a Brontë or Radcliffe novel - or is there a perfectly mundane explanation to all this hogwash?
