| THE ANCESTRAL SUITCASE While sorting through the attic of her natal home, Professor Nora Locke discovers an old suitcase containing family photos and other mementos. Through a quirky act of fate, she takes this suitcase on her sabbatical to England instead of the new one she had packed. With the case's contents serving as a catalyst, time seems to melt around Nora, carrying her back to 1913, the year that her flamboyant grandmother emigrated from the Midland's town of Barrow with the ancestral suitcase. By following the clues to a grisly turn-of-the-century murder, Nora is able to free herself from the emotional juggernaut that has kept her en thrall to her family's past. PRAISE FOR THE ANCESTRAL SUITCASE "The Ancestral Suitcase is a brilliant, incandescent, sensual achievement, full of mystery and unanswerable questions ... It haunts me." - June Callwood |
