After her estranged parent’s phone line has been disconnected, Moira Lane begrudgingly returns to the home she abandoned eight years ago only to find things far worse than she could have feared. Her father, William, has taken to peeing in coffee mugs and her mother, Bonnie, claims to have had a miraculous birth. Believing the “baby” to be her youngest daughter reincarnated, Bonnie is convinced that Faeries in the woods have blessed the family with a second chance. As a terrible storm moves in, Moira must battle her family’s madness and navigate the years of guilt and grief feeding the storm if she has any hope of getting out alive.

Jane Doe cannot explain how the frozen cod got in her briefcase, she cannot explain why she keeps dreaming about snow, and she certainly doesn’t understand why she is being kept awake night after night with dreams of a little man slicing her into bite-size pieces. What she does know, however, is that she needs to get to the bottom of things before these mysterious “Incidents” get in the way of the biggest promotion of her life! When the eccentric Dr. Snafu offers to clone her, she leaps at the opportunity. What she doesn’t realize though, is that by failing to disclose her multiple plastic surgeries she will come face to face with the “Jane-that-could-have-been”, thus forcing her to confront her own inner demons. What follows is a riotous, and fantastical, journey through one woman’s fight for self-discovery.

About a year ago Paul Brown returned to the family farm. He entered the house while no one was home, took off all his clothes and shot himself in the head. Now, a year later, Ginny Mae Brown has moved back to the family farm to take care of her ailing Mother and quick-tempered father, but things aren’t quite right in Ham Brown’s House. Ham is convinced his daughter is trying to kill him, his wife can’t speak, the nosy family physician keeps coming round to check on things, and his favored son John hasn’t been home since the funeral. All Ham wants is some peace and quiet , but that might be hard to do with Ginny poking around. Left to put together pieces of an old family secret, hidden away for 33 years, Ginny starts to wonder, what is Opal hiding? Did she really suffer a stroke or was she the victim of some sort of attack? What does Doc Housman know that makes Ham bristle at his very name? Why hasn’t John come home, and what is on that old movie reel that has got Opal so terrified of Ham? Events unfold in a pressure cooker of emotion until the final scene, where the old projector is once again found and Ginny Mae serves up a final reckoning.
