'A proper page-turner! Suspenseful, mysterious, spooky and witty - and great fun' Justin Myers, author of The Last Romeo

Meet Frida: divorce lawyer, cynic and secret descendant of the immortal love god Eros. She's about to have a really bad day . . .

When a handsome but clearly delusional man named Dan bursts into Frida's office and insists that she is fated to save the world, she has him ejected faster than you can say 'prenup'.

But a creepy meeting, a demon or three and one attempted kidnapping later, Frida is beginning to face the inconvenient truth: Dan is in fact The Oracle, the gods of Greek mythology are real and Frida herself appears to be everyone's only hope.

The world is doomed.

Bridget Jones by way of Neil Gaiman, this uplifting and laugh-out-loud story will change the way you look at love - and humanity - for ever.

[wyvernfriend]

So Frida is a lawyer and cynic, and apparently the descendant of the God Eros. She's not impressed whern Dan bursts into her office and insists that she has to help him save the world she isn't impressed and throws him out, but things happen that convince her that he is not crazy but her world will never be the same again. I liked it, there were some places when the world felt a little fragile but otherwise I want more.
