In this collection,readers and protagonists alike step across that threshold, on excursions ranging from tongue-in-cheek to chilling:  take a museum tour with a Trickster Deity… hike with hippies on a mystical mountain near San Francisco… sail the Pacific with only whales for company… honeymoon in a romantic old castle on the banks of Loch Ness… spend a monsoon season at a lonely outpost in India… go to college with vampires… meet someone new on the dance floor at a local club… discover that love is sometimes not blind, but invisible…A novella, two novelettes and ten short stories ask and answer many burning questions of our time, on Paranormal Issues and Mysterious Occurrences… would a girl vampire have boy problems in college?… what is that flying around the room?…  which country has the most romantic werewolves?… what do lab animals chat about?... is every dog our best friend?... are these the worst housemates ever?… is that a flying saucer?… what exactly is a burning question?Patricia A.
