After Alison Temple discovers that her husband is cheating on her, she
does what any jilted woman would do: She spray-paints a nasty message
for him on her wedding dress and takes a job with the detective firm
that found him out. Being a researcher at the all-female Fitzgerald's
Bureau of Investigation in London is certainly a change of pace from her
previous life, especially considering the characters Alison meets in the
line of duty. There's her boss, the estimable Mrs. Fitzgerald; Taron,
Alison's eccentric best friend, who claims her mother is a witch; Jeff,
her love-struck, poetry-writing neighbor; and--last but not least!--her
psychic postman. Together, their idiosyncrasies and their demands on
Alison threaten to drive her mad...if she didn't need and love them all
so much. Clever, quirky, and infused with just a hint of magic, Alison
Wonderland is a literary novel about a memorable heroine coping with the
everyday complexities of modern life.
