Nearing death, an old man laments his poor choice of a wife, and has orchestrated a situation where he will see his childhood love one last time. From these circumstances emerges Stella, a woman who grapples with her family ghosts as they reach across the generations. "The Seary Line" is a collage of interactions that explores the strength of a bloodline, and the often minute, but significant energies that propel a life forward.

Nicole grew up in Upper Gul-lies, New-found-land, with her five sib-lings and par-ents, John and Nancy Lun-dri-gan. She attended Queen Eliz-a-beth Regional High School in nearby Fox-trap. Dur-ing her final year at QERHS, she enjoyed a semes-ter of school in Amiens, France where she lived with a Baron and Baroness in the Chateau de Prouzel.
