Blooming Women

Amber Hood and her possessing spirit partner, part-time Succubus and marriage broker Samantha Gurnard, find themselves trapped by a misguidedly murderous Dryad as they drive home from a housewarming, late one winter's night.

Clothing fine for a Friday night out in the city is dangerously under-dressed for a freezing Warwickshire woodland in January; Amber must use her wits to free herself before hypothermia sets in and Samantha is forced to hitchhike home with the coroner.

After dying in an air raid in 1916, very ex-teacher Samantha Gurnard found that death wasn't all it was cracked up to be. Believing it her destiny, she began Britain's only psychic marriage bureau, possessing unknowing 'clients', chosen from those who move into her apartment, and 'helping' them meet Mr. Right with a very hands-on approach.
Amber Hood, high-strung with intelligence to match, looked like an easy prospect to matchmake, until the self-styled succubus and her latest charge were compelled to join forces to fight for their combined existence; now they work together, spectre and inspector, for Her Majesty's Department of Spiritual Affairs, a covert department defending the British Isles from five thousand years of its supernatural history.
