Beschreibung zu „A Scandal in Battersea“

Christmas is a very special time of year. It is special for Psychic Nan Killian and Medium Sarah Lyon-White and their ward Suki, who are determined to celebrate it properly. Their friends, Doctor John Watson, and his wife Mary, both Elemental Masters, alsofind great delight in the season. It is special to others… for very different reasons.
For Christmas Eve is also hallowed to dark forces, powers older than mankind. Women disappear in the dark of night, and reappear no longer sane. When Nan, Sarah and the Watsons are called on to examine these victims, they discover that it was no ordinary horror of the streets that drove them mad. It will take the combined forces of Magic, Psychic Powers, and the world's greatest detective to stop the darkness before it can conquer all.

Über Mercedes Lackey

Mercedes Lackey is a well-known author of fantasy novels and she often collaborates with other authors. She is known for her Valdemar novels (which involve complicated stories about relationships between human and non-human beings) and that bring into the story all manner of cultural issues such as social mores and ethics.

While the structure (outer structure) of Lackey's world in her writing resembles our world as we know it, the world within the world is one that is inhabited by vampires, fire-starters, witches, elves, magicians, sensitives, wizards and the like all who can work powerful magic in our world through different portals (as in this book). Lackey lives with her husband outside of Tulsa, Oklahoma in a house that is a 2 and 1/2 story concrete dome with an octagonal wooden shell placed over it; a house that is as unusual as the stories she creates.
