Produktbeschreibung

This extraordinary debut novel offers a genre-bending journey through spaces that are both familiar and strange, comforting and horrifying, historical and fantastical...

Jeanne Melrose is barely coping with her awkward status of well-to-do Widow in 1920 London. Her twin daughters, while gifted with very odd talents, are incorrigible - Jacqueline obsessed with rooting out their father's killer, Joanne more troubled over her latest pimple. Enter the eerily magical Edith Stitch, hired as governess by Jeanne but tasked by the immortal Ba of Otherwhere to collect Jacqueline to feed their addiction to young mortal souls. Enter Lord Booth, a slightly insane Ba, accidentally fallen to Earth to quickly become a feared gangster terrorizing the Melrose warehouse district. The twins are oblivious to the havoc Booth wreaks in their mother's world while Booth himself struggles to deal with the stubbornly modern Jeanne Melrose. Edith choses sides and realizes nothing good can come of this.

Take a walk on the wild side as the Gatekeeper Beorht consorts amongst immortals, dock working thugs, bankers, shipbrokers and a flower delivery boy - all getting in each other's way to gain favor with the plucky Melrose women.
