All Twyla wanted was tea and cake, but she got a curse instead.
With a talent for walking the realm of ghosts unharmed, Twyla Andricksson is sent to a country asylum run by the Morpheus Society to help those who have lost their minds. For only Twyla can visit the ghostly plane without consequences, and with her talent now revealed to all, the Society sends her on a rescue mission.
"She told us she is headed to the Blanc Lys where they murder people by flaying them alive!"
Twyla protested, "I never said that!"
Twyla is the last chance for a woman who will wait for eternity for her dead husband, and for a young man held captive by his grandmother's ghost because she needs help with her knitting.
"My mother does not let me host dinner parties for fear of a fire breaking out or all the household staff quitting."
Twyla has always affirmed she would never marry, so faced with a horrible ghost who has decided to make her his bride, she might do something desperate. Like host a dinner party, something her mother has strictly forbidden.
Twyla always does terrible things with great enthusiasm for very good reasons.
