Brief Author Bio:

I stay sane during my PhD by writing a novel in a month. Indeed.

Synopsis: Dr Dee's Magical Mirror

Kay is leading as normal a life as you can get. An insurance broker at a reputable firm in London, she is on the verge of clinching a big deal and climbing the corporate ranks. She has a normal boyfriend, normal interests - even a normal name that she wasn't born with. Then a bizarre experience at The British Museum throws her carefully orchestrated life into chaos. With everything changing, Kay has to learn to deal with her past and all that she previously rejected. As strange coincidences mount up, will it all be too much for her, or for her harried author?!
