Sinopsis

When a Greek goddess and a fairy hob disappear, detective Turner Cronyn is on the case. He soon discovers a connection to long-forgotten TV star Patrick Raden of Solar Patrol, whose spaceship model mysteriously decays overnight.
 
Teaming up with a stunning goddess, a merry pixie, a protective minotaur, and more fantastical allies, Turner pursues clues leading unexpectedly to the shadowy realm of Olympus—and to a sinister tower occupied by the murderous goblin, Redcap. But Turner and his friends aren’t the only ones seeking the missing immortals, and a dangerous conspiracy threatens them at every twist.
 
To succeed, Turner must navigate both mortal L.A. and the perilous lands of myths and magic before an ancient debt comes due. Failure could spell doom for all involved in this thrilling fantasy quest.

    Louisa May Alcott was born on 29th November 1832 in Germantown, Pennsylvania. 
     
    She is most definitely a writer of her own experiences.  Her father was a transcendentalist, philosopher and educational experimenter who founded, Fruitlands, a utopian community. Although poor, her liberal and progressive parents provided Louisa with much of her education, which was enhanced by many family friends that included Thoreau, Hawthorne and Emerson, a neighbour whose library she was often found reading in.    
     
    She started writing stories as a way of providing the family with some financial stability. Times were difficult and the effects of poverty were always close at hand.  During the Civil War she went to Washington to be a nurse and became ill with typhoid fever although she continued to write and build her success.  However, the treatment for typhus gave her mercury poisoning which caused further health issues for the rest of her life and eventually contributed to her death.   
     
    Alcott visited her father on his deathbed in Boston. Two days later on 6th March 1888 she also died resulting in a joint funeral.   
     
    Well-loved for her classic ‘Little Women’ she was a superb writer in difficult times for any woman, a strong advocate of women’s issues, the anti-slavery movement, temperance and social reform.    
     
    Her work often reflects on the rich experiences in her life and these poignant short stories are a fine testament to this. Additionally under pseudonyms she wrote dozens of gothic thrillers and sensation stories.  She is also famed for her children’s stories.
