Summary

Tami is a free spirit. She is a professional temporary employee. No full-time job is going to tie her down. She loves meeting new people, learning new skills, and studying human nature. Her mother said she was nosy, but curiosity is central to Tami's life. She loves peanut butter sandwiches and apples, any kind of music, and the wind through her hair as she zooms around on her trusty red bicycle, Ruby. Her beloved mother gave Tami her first two-wheeler. She has ridden a red bike ever since. Late one night, Tami rides home from work. She and Ruby suddenly hit a huge pothole on the darkened road. The bicycle flies into the hedges. The damage? A lump on the head, a bloody knee, and a broken wheel! Tami is skeptical when a young man appears out of the dark to help her. But she has no way of knowing this is just the beginning of a mystery in the big house rising behind her. Her mishap drops her in the middle of a wealthy, unhappy, ambitious family...and a murder! Tami is on the case. The first of a series, The Two-Wheeled Detective introduces us to a watchful, curious, and tenacious young accidental detective!

    A plague is coming to London. Dreaded more than the Devil himself, cholera - the 'blue death' - spares no one. As fear grows across the city, Jem Flockhart and Will Quartermain are called to the bedside of a dead man, murdered, and with his throat torn out, in the back room of a brothel. When an innocent man is taken to Newgate, Jem and Will have until execution day to save him. The search for the identity of the corpse, and the killer, takes them to the gates of Blackwater Hall, home to the secretive, and corrupt Mortmain family. With the approach of autumn, no one is safe, for the fog brings with it an evil and poisonous sickness - the perfect shroud for murder. 
    When family secrets are prised out into the open, people begin dying. But who, or what, is the cause? Searching for answers, Jem and Will are driven underground, to the passages and tunnels beneath the city's teeming streets. Here, their adversary proves to be more elusive, and more deadly, than ever.

    The tale of an afterlife.
     
     “If the inability to see other than that which you wish to see can be considered a kind of heaven, then presumably the inability to escape self-knowledge must be one version of hell.”
     
     The ill-fated consequences of happenstance: Born into an English country 
    village community in the 1950s, a young boy is led, through a series of events over which he in effect has little or no control, to take the life of a neighbour’s child, and subsequently his own. And this is the tale, if there can be any, of the subsequent accounting.
     
    The book itself is set in an ever-mutating afterlife that also provides an interim existence before rebirth – an illusory world where, of necessity, it is in large part conveniently repressed memories that hold sway, and where for Eric (if we can suppose that to be his name), each step forward is also leading (with some level of perversity) to the truths of his own personal past transgressions.
