The journey of Nausicaa

Monica Morganti

Sinossi

Milan, 1927. Nausicaa, a young Milanese painter, has just bought her ticket for the transatlantic voyage to New York, where she will exhibit one of her paintings at the International Exhibition of Modern Art in Brooklyn. On the same day, however, she begins to suffer from a severe form of photophobia that puts her imminent departure at risk. These are the roaring years of jazz by Armstrong and Gershwin, the books of Scott Fitzgerald and Pirandello, in a Milan full of new buildings with Art Nouveau decorations and furnishings, and Nausicaa is a child of those times... In search of a decisive cure, she begins a journey into the nascent analytical psychology with a student of Dr Jung, from whom she learns to dialogue with her soul and understand the
symbolic meaning of her symptoms. Who knows if this journey within herself will really take her to New York...?

Dead as a Dodo

Elle Adams

Robin Wildwood is settling into her new role as Head Witch… kind of. At least her squirrel familiar, Tansy, is enjoying their return to her childhood home of Wildwood Heath. Between lectures from her grandmother's ghost and the pressure to live up to her family's high expectations, Robin hopes for some light relief when she's invited to attend a retirement party with the local Sky Hopper team - especially when it gives her an excuse to spend time with Harvey, her old crush and the current team captain. But when the party's host chokes to death unexpectedly, the blame lands on none other than Harvey himself. 
Robin is keen to prove Harvey's innocence, but defending her would-be boyfriend from a murder accusation is tricky when her over-achieving older brother happens to be the head of the local police force and the person with the power to decide Harvey's fate. If they lose their captain, the Sky Hopper team will have to hang up their broomsticks for good, but the world of professional magical sports is as scheming as any of the covens and everyone seems to have secrets. 
Can Robin navigate this bumpy flight and catch the real killer before Harvey finds himself behind bars?
