If you have comments or questions, or have simply been enjoying the story and want to say hello, please drop me a note! The show, a musical reenactment of Sherlock Holmes’ last adventure in which he fell from the waterfall, was remarkably well done. Maite was taken with the costumes and the stage sets and […]
If you have comments or questions, or have simply been enjoying the story and want to say hello, please drop me a note! George returned to the table with a couple of pitchers of beer in hand. “I didn’t know what kind of beer you like, so I got a lager and an IPA.” Kepa […]
If you have comments or questions, or have simply been enjoying the story and want to say hello, please drop me a note! That night, they joined Edurne’s husband George, her brother Unai, and his partner Eric in Times Square. Lights were everywhere. The large electronic billboards beamed down at them, advertising everything from cellular […]
Maite looked around. She found herself kneeling on the floor of the Registry Room, in the very corner where she and Kepa had touched hands just before they had been thrown back in time.
