Up first is "The Housekeeper", by Maurice Reynard, in which he introduces us to a strange and before its time household. A household run along what we now call: "Female-Led" lines. And a household minus its female head since the Victorian husband's poisoning of his wealthy and overbearing wife. Murder committed in expectation of the shortly to be received bequest of her estate he hopes will change his life... Anticipation brought to an abrupt halt by his poisoned wife's housekeeper and her knowledge of his crime... A younger woman even more warped and domineering than her older mistress... It will not end well.
Finally, we have "Let Sleeping Evils Lie", Theo Hopcraft's retro-adventure of a purloined middle-eastern artefact its rightful owners will stop at nothing to re-acquire... Along with the souls of those unwise enough to have taken it... Meaning, for one innocent but curious-minded Englishman who finds himself embroiled in the race to prevent any further murder and mayhem committed in the artefact's name, it will not be until too late that he realises he is in way over his head... Far too late to prevent the sentence upon him of eternal service in the household of a fanatical female of the sect from whom the artefact was stolen.
2-Books of female-led fantasy and misadventure for those readers with a desire to have a light shone on the more... outré ...corners of their imaginations.
