A modern-day myth, a no-nonsense heroine, and tea leaves that never lie.
Claire knows where to find the people reported as ‘missing under suspicious circumstances’. Unfortunately, telling the authorities means Claire risks taking the blame for the disappearances. Infuriating.
Instead, if Claire wants to see justice in the world, her future-telling tea speaks (metaphorically) crystal clear: Claire must rescue the people from the mysterious, other-worldly cave at the end of the street herself.
Of course, she never factored an other-worldly job offer into the equation…
A modern-day twist on Hades and Persephone, in a world where belief controls the outcome of… everything. For readers who love a no-nonsense protagonist doing what needs to be done.

If not, that’s fine, you’re not missing much because SPOILER the entire point is that that one thing is different for everyone, and you have to figure out what it is for yourself.… Read more: You Only Need Three Things In Life

- In Which No One Goes To Hell BiblicallySo part of my commitment to occupying my own space here more regularly also means occupying this space more faithfully and more fully, as my full self without fear. That means that, every so often, I will discuss religion, because I am a deeply religious person and it has a lot of bearing on my… Read more: In Which No One Goes To Hell Biblically
