Alienism
Welcome to the asylum: the place where insanity is made.
In Autumn 1885, Maria Bright wakes up in Killerham Asylum for Women with no memory of how she got there, her own past or even her own personality.
As far as Maria is concerned she's really Wendi House, the singer of 1990s Indie band Beam who are in the middle of recording their next album at Killerham Manor Residential Studio in the wilds of Devon…
After the events of GHOSTDANCE Wendi is no longer sure what's real and what's just in her head. Could she really have travelled back in time 110 years or have the drugs finally caught up with her?

Ghostdance
Are indie band Beam the next big thing?
Their record company thinks so - they’ve sent the band away to a pricy residential recording studio for a month to record their next album. However the large Victorian building in the wilds of Devon has an unusual history.
When singer Wendi starts experiencing odd things she can’t be sure whether they’re a symptom of the strange experiences she’s been prone to all her life or something to do with the very ground on which the studio stands.
She’s always been a bit of a weird one but when the persona she adopts when on stage starts taking on a life of its own it becomes difficult to tell where she ends and the façade begins…

Comeback
Genie has everything - a BRIT award, a singing career, the attention of the press and Oliver Fox, a pretty boy who looks good on her arm.
Until he dies.
His death brings Genie's long buried feelings bubbling to the surface. Her grief over the death of her lover Wendi who introduced her to this world. Her self doubt and fear that she will be exposed as a fraud.
How far is she prepared to go to fix things?
The afterlife isn't the most comfortable of places for anyone who's still alive, but Genie's not going to take any crap from the dead - she's got years of experience in the music business.
Sometimes going to Hell and back takes a lifetime...
