It is a charming story, and you make Clara's dilemma convincing. The bit with wolfgang at the end was masterful! Franklin was a bit of a stuffed shirt, but Susan was a breath of fresh air. All in all, you did well.

A wonderful and enthralling book about a woman's experience with the power of Psychometry and Antiques.

 

Author/Friend Pierrette

Clara our leading character owns an Antique store, but there the comparaison ends. For Clara having lost her husband at an early age, is forced to open up a business to make a living.

And it is soon after, while cleaning her new business, that she falls of a ladder and at which time, she seems to have acquired psychic power.
She thus is able to communicate with different objects and old furniture that had belonged to now departed previous owner.

Of course as one can imagine, this makes for quite a lot of interresting stories, as our Clara establishes contact between members of different families, who for one reason or another find comfort in having such rapports with their departed relatives. Indeed even an old murder is resolved.. when a long missing Grandmother turns out to have been murdered, and thus did not abandon her children, as it had been previously thought by her family for two generations.

Our heroin also finds love with her handsome next door neighbor..who cleverly plies her with capucinos! we are also invited to share a steamy love scene,whose writing would come naturally Id say ..to anyone who in real life, has had nine children as did our own Jennie!!

Now least this Psychometry based book, seems unlikely to some, let me remind the skeptics that in our own lifetime, there have been recorded in the past many cases of people, who after an illness or a fall, have found that they too had acquired supernatural powers. Some even went on to solve crimes.

One such man comes to mind by the name of Peter Hurkos. A Dutch painter, he had acquired psychic power after he fell of a ladder while painting a house. Thereafter police came from all over to consult with him, even from the U.S.

But still the most famous seer outside of Nostradamus in France in the middle ages, is our very own Edgar Cayce of Virginia beach, who in his own life time (he died in 1945) outstanded people, as he does still to this day with his too accurate predictions. They were mostly about people's illnesses and his absolutely amazing abilites he had to heal them, even from as far away as England. Many of his cures, knowlege of the human body were scoffed at by the medical profession of his day, but Cayce finally had the last laugh, when it now turns out he had known facts about the human body that were unknow even in medical books at the times. Indeed to this day his legend has grown, since all of his predictions, and medical advices for various ailments are still available for consultations at the library of his society called A.R.E (The association for research and enlighment.)in Virginia beach. There also will be found the many biographies that were written about this most admirable man.

So for those of you who enjoy this kind of book, I'd recommend our fellow author Jennifer Robbins, " Ghostly Antiques" and I wish you happy reading as well.
