Publisher's Synopsis
In the nineteenth century Charles Dickens wrote his novels as serials; in the late twentieth century Merrilee Moss conjures up a new kind of serial fiction: of ghosts, of crime, of satire and of lesbian desire. When the ghostly Fedora interrupts Julie Barnard's morning coffee in Brunswick Street, Julie's life is set to change. An out-of-work PI, Julie is seduced by Fedora's French accent and flamboyant hats, but soon discovers that wearing beautiful hats is a dangerous activity.
