|summary=Neurology professor Lauren Furrows witnesses the sudden untimely
death of two tourists in a bar while on holiday. Birmingham bookshop owner
Richard Anger happens to be in the same bar so together our single holiday
makers decide to team up as an investigatory force to be reckoned with.
(Well, Lauren teams up for that. Richard's reasons are more physical than
intellectual to begin with.) The murders seem to emanate from author Gary
Sayles, a legend in his own mind and, apparently, fatal to read. Elsewhere
hippy exhibitionists (in an over-18 way) Zeke and Pippa, are planning the
art installation to end all art installations and, are determined to make
Gary the centrepiece, whether he realises it or not.

|summary=Back in 1974 six teenagers met at summer camp and did all those things which you get to do when your parents are not around to stop you. They smoked pot, drank vodka and Tangs - and talked way into the night about anything and everything. Plays were put on, animations were perfected, but most importantly friendships were made that would last for years - for some it would be a lifetime. Back in 1974, as Nixon left the White House under a particularly heavy cloud, 'The Interestings', as one of their number called them, knew that they could achieve anything they set their minds to. For three summers they returned to Spirit-in-the-Woods and then they faced the real world.
