Wyrde and Wayward

Miss Gussie Werth is the only ordinary lady in her family, without a single drop of magic to liven things up. Fortunately, she’s just been abducted.

Miss Gussie Werth has grown up surrounded by the most supernatural family in England. Nell talks to the dead, Lord Werth is too often found in the churchyard at the dead of night… and the less said about Lord Bedgberry, the better.

Somehow, Gussie has been passed over by the family curse. She sups on chocolate, not blood; she’s blissfully oblivious to spectres (except for Great-Aunt Honoria, of course); and she hasn’t the smallest inclination to turn into a beast upon the full moon, and go ravening about the countryside. All things considered, her life has been unbearably placid and uninteresting.
