A bright young man, Matthew, and a posh young woman, Azur, struggle
to understand strange psychic phenomena. Matt, a practical
Engineer, cannot believe what he sees and feels, while Azur, a
snooty English parapsychology expert, thinks she knows all about
it. A difficult romance develops as they interact with undead
creatures who were Matt's ancestors. These entities are playful one
moment and deadly the next, powerful in some ways, surprisingly
weak in others, with strong interests in practical jokes and sex.
Matt is fascinated by their invisibility, but Azur is afraid they
will kill her. The setting for these adventures is a dilapidated
English country house that is falling into the sea. Matt is torn
between heartaches over Azur and his fight to install steel beams
under the large house before it washes away. He is determined to
stop the erosion and restore the house to its former glory, even
though bureaucrats are trying to demolish it and build a power
plant on the site. Perhaps his weird grandparents can help . . .
.perhaps he can somehow win Azur . . . . perhaps the rock under the
house won't crush him before he installs enough steel . . . .
Details from both the psychic and the engineering worlds are
extensive, and somewhat authentic. A complete but
not-overly-technical description of the structural engineering is
in an Appendix for those who wish to learn more.
