An Inconvenient Séance

By Belinda Kroll

It was a truth universally ignored that sons abhorred being sent to s?ances in search of a wife.

In this short story (approx. 4,000 words) Jasper Steele has had enough of ghosts to last him a lifetime, so why is he attending a s?ance? Mostly to appease his mother, who worries about his head and his heart after his summer in the English countryside getting rejected by Mary Trentwood.

Eloise Carterprice has never been one to let a good opportunity escape her, so it's only natural that her ghost appears during the latest s?ance hosted by her mother.

Read this story for a fun, light read featuring gaslamp fantasy, Victorian comedy of manners, and beleaguered gentleman in search of love, peace, and quiet.

This is a short story bridge between Haunting Miss Trentwood and A Spirited Engagement. It is a companion to "Miss Preston's Predicament."
