Synopsis

One chilly April morning a stranger shows up at a commune in the Catskill Mountains, upstate New York. Conor is greeted by Liv, sixty-seven years old, mother, cancer survivor and founder of the once pilgrimage-worthy Birdeye Colony, now well past its heyday. Liv lets him stay, unaware that her two oldest friends are about to make a devastating announcement. Conor seems to offer a lifeline, but who is he really? As truths masked by free spirit push their way into the open, Liv must reassess what she asks of those she loves most.
Birdeye is a novel about tolerance, the choices we make in good faith, and, ultimately, what they cost.

    Ten years ago, my high school crush found me during senior finals week in the student parking lot with my car decorated with items you find behind a drugstore counter and a Most Likely to... banner that would make a pro blush. And by pro, I don't mean golf. In under an hour, everything I knew about myself was turned upside down and inside out, just as our high school career was in its final hours. Then again, he's the high school quarterback. He's used to performing when the clock's running out. Me? I perform well under pressure, too. But not when Will Lotham is about to kiss me.

    Tandy’s every instinct told her to jump in and to take over the care of her two half siblings. They were twins, born to her mother later in life. Tandy hadn’t been in a position to help her other siblings, a guilt that still ate at her. These twins, however, had special needs, and she wasn’t sure she was up for the challenge. Nonverbal, they appeared to live in an alternate world, one she didn’t know how to reach. 
    Keller worked alongside Grant in the FBI and was considering how his own growing psychic skills could be better utilized, when he was asked to help on a case that had very unusual elements. These were elements that Stefan and Dr. Maddy hadn’t seen before—and that was saying something. 
    Not until he meets Tandy does Keller realize how unusual and potentially sinister this case truly is …

    Magic is real, and Viola is going to prove it! 
     
     
     
    Viola is a Parisian librarian by day and parkourist by night. The last thing she wants is an arranged marriage (ick) with a man (double ick). If Viola can fund the library and keep it open, she might keep her job and freedom, might being the key word. To make matters worse, strange magical shades keep attacking her, threatening her physical safety. Viola knows magic is real and wants to be part of that world, but she can't find a way out of her mundane life. She can only vent her troubles to her confidant, a lady gargoyle . . . though the statue has never spoken back. 
     
     
     
    Boudicca is a creature without a soul—a fact as steady as the stone she's made of. Yet when the mage who created Boudicca gives her a task that requires her to appear human, she's feeling new, soft things for the librarian who likes to climb Paris in her slippers. Viola could never love Boudicca in her true form, but the gargoyle finds herself putting her heart on the line to help keep the library open . . . and help Viola discover the magic that will pull her into a new world of freedom.

    The eight stories here show Wells in various moods and foreshadow his celebrity. These are uncanny tales, resonating strangely, despite arising from ordinary thoughts, interactions, and memories. Wells shows just how fantastic the everyday can be, if one only pauses to reflect on missed chances, suggestions of what might have been, bleak premonitions of blessed futures whose utopian promise is destroyed by new forms of war.
