Everyone fears death, the great unwinding...Ticking clocks echo through an enormous English country house. A watercolor over the mantle ripples. A woman sleepwalks, pulled by moonlight and dreams, until she stands under the painting, the last gift she was given by author Lewis Carroll, on the eve of her wedding.Her name is Alice. And on the other side of the painting, Wonderland is calling to her.One last time.Tick...tock...tick...In Wonderland, one only works in one's sleep.All proper Wonderlandians spend all night, every night, hard at work, winding the great clock of Wonderland - the Master Chronometer - of which all other Wonderlandians are but synchronized slave clocks.At night, one understands that one is made of clockwork, although, of course, one pretends otherwise when one is awake. To do otherwise would make the current madness of the daylit Wonderlandians look like stark sanity.Besides, it's only polite.

At sunrise and sunset, the sky burns like it's on fire and the old broken bridge over the railroad tracks on the far side of town stretches across the universes. At the end of the bridge are the fairies... Della Rae is only in this podunk Midwestern university town for the full-ride biology scholarship she's getting. In a year or two, she's going to Oxford as an exchange student, she knows it. Her eventual goal: to cure cancer. Only life doesn't go like that. The way you planned. Something's going on in the basement of the science building, something that's tied up every single professor and sends the summer work-study students running. Rumors are going around that the professors are performing a vivisection. And nobody wants to see that. But it's probably not going to be performed on the lab rats. Because this town has always had something weird going on. Something that involves Della Rae's best friend, Merc, and a few other kids in town, all with the same face...

Dames, detectives, and deception...magic meets the decadence of the Roaring Twenties in ten tales of glitter and jazz.The year is 1929. It's two months after the financial collapse on Wall Street, and the world is bating its breath, unsure of what will happen next. Is it the end of an era? At the Honeybee's Sting, a speakeasy in the basement of a laundry, a group of unusual figures meets to discuss the past-and perhaps some possible futures: the Detective turned writer, the Dame who's older than she looks, the Vampire who's been riding the financial markets for generations, the Spy from across the ocean, the Actress who's only just learned the truth about Hollywood, and more.But one of their number is missing, a man connected to the mob, a man who holds the prize for a mysterious storytelling contest-a prize that can give you your heart's desire.Ten stories, woven together in the style of The Canterbury Tales, follow the contest along a long, dark night where nothing is what it seems and the best way to tell the truth is to lie. Pour yourself a cocktail and join us at the liar's table for the divine, the slapstick, the tragic, the transcendent 1920s today
