Phoebe Waller Bridge Tomb Raider

Mr. Feng Shui's Folk Anecdotes

Set against the tumultuous backdrop of China's Republican Era (1912-1949), this novel chronicles the uncanny adventures of Li Beidou, a feng shui master born under a portentous celestial alignment. His birth coincided with the winter solstice—a liminal moment of cosmic transition between Yin and Yang—marked by an omen: every black dog in the village went mad, hurling themselves to their deaths beneath the ancient huai tree at the village entrance. Hailing from a lineage of funeral attire shopkeepers who clothed the dead, Beidou's destiny shifted during a feverish delirium when he encountered the Yin-Inquiring Matriarch, a spectral figure who inducted him into the shadowed arts bridging the mortal realm and the afterlife. The narrative weaves through encounters with Yin Arts—esoteric rituals to commune with spirits—and the perilous Nine Yin Techniques, a forbidden corpus of necromantic lore. Each chapter unravels bizarre phenomena: sentient funeral paper effigies, geomantic curses haunting ancestral tombs, and markets where the dead barter with spirit coins. Blending historical verisimilitude with supernatural intrigue, the story illuminates the clandestine world of Yin-Yang practitioners—custodians of cosmic balance—through Beidou's trials. From exorcising poltergeists in Shanghai's jazz-age parlors to decoding cryptic feng shui patterns in war-torn villages, his journey reveals how the veil between worlds grows thin in times of human strife.

Between the Bridges of Istanbul

Synopsis – Between the Bridges of Istanbul Istanbul—a city of dreams, history, and heartbreak. For Aylin, it is a place that holds both the ghosts of her past and the possibilities of her future. Four months ago, she believed in love. She believed in Murat, a boy who whispered sweet promises while hiding a different life behind his phone screen. When betrayal shattered her heart, Aylin swore never to fall again. She rebuilt herself—stronger, colder, untouchable. Love was no longer a fairytale, but a beautifully told lie. Then came Emir. Mysterious, guarded, and effortlessly charming, Emir is everything Aylin should avoid. He lives behind walls of secrets, keeping his past locked away. Yet, with every shared glance and unspoken conversation, he pulls her in—challenging her to feel again. But love in Istanbul is never simple. As Aylin and Emir navigate the bridges of their past and present, fate tests them with truths too painful to ignore. Her mother, desperate to protect her daughter from another heartbreak, severs their connection. Aylin’s hidden wounds—her father’s cruelty, her mother’s silent suffering, and the scars Murat left behind—threaten to consume her. And when it all becomes too much, Aylin faces her final choice: Stay and risk losing herself in the city that has taken so much from her, or walk away—leaving behind the boy who might have been her greatest love. Set against the backdrop of Istanbul’s breathtaking skyline, Between the Bridges of Istanbul is a tale of love, loss, and the impossible choices that shape us. Some hearts mend, some hearts break, and some love stories are destined to be written in the space between.
