Did the far-north country of Finland even exist before the age of Scandi Noir? Yes indeed, and strange things happened there to Dr. Fisher, when compelled by fate to spend a holiday by its glittering lakes. Absorbed in his lifetime passion, the relentless study of truth and beauty, he discovers in this land of nightless nights and tranquil waters more beauty than he ever could have imagined. But how close does he ever get to the truth of the desperate dramas being played out all around him? Set in London and Finland in the 1980s, the book takes a humorous, off-beat look at the Finns and Finnishness, not forgetting the impenetrable Finnish language, through the strange tale of Dr. Fisher. Though the slant is lighthearted, the author's decades of living in Finland ensure that the picture is authentic. Nor is what goes on by any means all comedy. "Gothic and absorbing, ... a story with untimely twists, told with well-honed irony. The beguiling humour masks something much more sinister than the reader might expect." Award-winning novelist Margaret Elphinstone.

"I first met Megan on a balmy summer evening at a less than salubrious establishment famous for music and creamy pints, where she described herself as a writer. I have heard this many times before... when I investigated this collection of work - Megan clearly is a writer. A special writer who extrapolates with muscular poise and an eviscerating quill. This collection is a strong affecting piece of work; visceral, sensual, that is challenging and thought provoking hewn from the cliff faces of life's trials and tribulations that infest the human condition. I strongly recommend it, preferably with a supple glass of red wine and a roaring fire. Long may the ink in her quill flow." Pearse Elliott 2022
