Love can be a truly terrible thing. Marriages are tricky at the best of times especially
when one of you is dead. Vincent Banecroft the irascible editor of The Stranger Times has
never believed his wife died despite emphatic evidence to the contrary. Now against all odds
it seems he may actually be proved right but what lengths will he go to in an attempt to
rescue her? With Banecroft distracted the shock resignation of assistant editor Hannah
Willis couldn't have come at a worse time. It speaks volumes that her decision to reconcile
with her philandering ex-husband is only marginally less surprising than Banecroft and his wife
getting back together. In this time of crisis is her decision to swan off to a fancy new-age
retreat run by a celebrity cult really the best thing for anyone? As if that wasn't enough
one of the paper's ex-columnists has disappeared a particularly impressive trick seeing as he
never existed in the first place. Floating statues hijacked ghosts homicidal cherubs irate
starlings Reliant Robins and quite possibly several deeply sinister conspiracies all-in-all
a typical week for the staff of The Stranger Times . Readers LOVE C. K. McDonnell:
