Synopsis

On a winter's day in the Dandenong Ranges of Australia, pianist Ginny returns home to her eccentric mother, Harriet, trying to find out the truth about her father's disappearance. In an effort to distract her daughter's interrogations, Harriet proposes they collaborate on an exhibition of paintings and songs.
 
Meanwhile, on the edge of Dartmoor, artist Judith paints landscapes of the Australian Outback to soothe her troubled heart, as her wayward daughter Madeleine returns home... and fills the house with darkness.
 
Brimming with mystery and intrigue, A Perfect Square is a beautiful and redemptive novel about mothers and their daughters, and the creative process that binds them.

    An emissary from the Dark Council has just materialized in the office of the Montague & Strong Detective Agency, and makes Simon Strong an offer he can’t refuse. Charon is missing.

Together with his surly partner-Tristan Montague, a mage of indeterminate age, they must find the Ferryman and get him back to work before another Supernatural War ravages the earth, destroys humanity, and Simon’s local coffee shop.

    Join the Montague & Strong Detective Agency and help them locate Charon, so he can restore balance to the universe, put the dead sorcerers to rest, and maybe solve the age old conundrum-coffee or tea?

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    From Digital Fable Forge comes a cinematic audio-drama of H. P. Lovecraft’s The Call of Cthulhu. Music and immersive sound design pair with a cast of digital voice actors to trace a mystery from dusty notes to a storm-lashed sea. Lightly modernized and adapted for audio, this is the old terror reborn—best experienced with headphones. 
    New to the tale? A researcher inherits a dead professor’s papers and uncovers a pattern: fevered dreams that spread like a sickness, a hidden cult whispering one name, and a sailor’s log from an impossible city risen from the deep. Piece by piece, the fragments point to a sleeping, ancient power—Cthulhu—and to the awful truth that some things remember us.
