Book One: Chasing Rabbits Alice was wrong – Wonderland wasn’t so wonderful after all. Kat never expected to be back in her hometown, but when house sitting turns into a mad rabbit chase, Kat finds herself with a whole new set of problems. A two-headed bird with a Game of Thrones obsession, a party full of tea addicts, and a Cheshire Cat who could seduce the pants off her grandma? And if the citizens weren’t bad enough their prince was off his rocker. This wasn’t your run of the mill Wonderland. This was the Fae world, where rules are rules, and some things are exactly as they seem. Book Two: Chasing Cats Sometimes the smallest debt comes with the highest price. Kat went down the rabbit hole and came out changed. Now everyone wants something from her and she is hard pressed to give in to any of them. Only the irresistibly mysterious Cheshire Cat seems to be on her side. But even he has secrets of his own. Secrets that cause him to show up beaten and bloody on her doorstep. Dancing around lost friends and determined ex-lovers will be a feat on its own. Doing it and staying sane? Impossible. Book Three: Chasing Princes Who would you save? The Fae and human worlds are merging at a rapid pace, leaving Kat two options; crash with the rest of them or ride it out and claim her place. With both of Kat's knights out of the picture, it's up to her to face new dangers and defeat old enemies. But with Kat’s new powers still on the fritz and her most trusted companion no longer at her side, this librarian has to decide what’s worth saving and what will be sacrificed. Only one question remains: Can Kat save the Underground if she can’t even save herself? Book Four: Chasing Shadows Sometimes death is just the beginning. Just when Kat thought it was over, a cryptic message from the beyond has her right back in the thick of things. A little blood and a few words, it was supposed to be a fix all and it shouldn’t have ended this way. Kat’s new position as moderator will have to wait, the Shadow Realm was calling and it was time to end it for once and for all.

Elizabeth, a twenty-four-year-old interior designer living in Brooklyn, New York, encounters a little more than mental static when she sits down for her morning meditation, feeling disconnected from herself and her reality. As she meditates, she forces herself to confront her inner demons head on-including the darker parts that she would rather keep hidden from others, like her boyfriend, Adam. Her inner conflict leads her down a rabbit hole that is far different from the one she remembers from her favorite childhood story. When Elizabeth reaches the bottom of the rabbit hole, she follows a shadowy figure in a familiar blue dress who taunts her and coaxes her deeper into Wonderland. Unable to release herself from her meditation, Elizabeth chases Alice through Wonderland, guided by clues left by Alice, as well as the dark and strangely familiar characters she meets, like the Cheshire Cat, the Tweedle twins, and the Mad Hatter. In Wonderland, Elizabeth comes face to face with her inner light and darkness, and, finally, Alice-and discovers that Alice's secret might be what she has been searching for all along.

Download or read book ANY WAY THE WIND BLOWS written by Eben Beukes and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mrs Charlotte De Granville wanted a quiet, unobtrusive, not too clever private detective for a very discreet little job. The nature of the assignment dictated a certain economy of truth when it came to briefing said detective. He would detect and she would take care of the rest -- with extreme prejudice. Anthony M Moretti, failed golf pro, onetime Miami nightclub hustler and more recently PI specializing in divorce work, fitted the bill rather nicely. So Tony got the job and the kind of trip that would take him from the glitter of Cape Town's jet set to the rotten underbelly of pulsating Durban to the tropical paradise of the Comoros Islands. Somewhere along the way things become complicated. Things like a black eyed beauty with a voice like Nina Simone or a woman who could stomach a revolution but not a man's betrayal. A young mercenary with hope in his heart and technicolor illusions of an Africa long faded to dusty decay. And an ageing soldier of fortune who really should have known better...
