A. M. Stacey is the author of the wonderful contemporary fiction novel, 'The Beautiful One':

Michael Stanton is a haunted man. He can think of nothing but Moira, his sadly departed love, as he paints endless portraits alone in his mansion. But when ghoulish shadows and ominous voices start to haunt him as well, Michael finds himself spiralling into a fatal pit of depression, paranoia and anxiety.

Enter Sylvia Stindey - kindly, quirky and, fortunately for Michael, well-versed in communicating with spirits. As Sylvia takes a severely shaken Michael under her wing, they start to unravel the reasons for paranormal goings-on that have been plaguing Michael. With the help of Sylvia's beautiful niece Sophie and some expert paranormal advice, mysteries about Michael's past lives and past crimes are revealed; but how can he make amends and move on with the life he's already living?
