Kehua! / Fay Weldon. by Weldon, Fay. Europa Editions, 2013, c2010. Call #: FICTION WEL Subjects Maori (New Zealand people) -- England -- Fiction.   Spirits -- Fiction.   Murder -- Fiction.   Adultery -- Fiction.   Muswell Hill (London, England) -- Fiction. ISBN:  9781609451370 (trade pbk.) Description:  316 p. ; 21 cm. Summary:  Your writer, in conjuring this tale of murder, adultery, incest, ghosts, redemption and remorse, takes you first to a daffodil-filled garden in Highgate, North London, where, just outside the kitchen window, something startling shimmers on the very edges of perception. Fluttering and chattering, these are our kehua - a whole multiplying flock of Maori spirits (all will be explained) goaded into wakefulness by the conversation within. Scarlet - a long-legged, skinny young woman of the new world order - has announced to Beverley - her aged grandmother - that she intends to leave home and husband for the glamorous actor, Jackson Wright - he of the vampire films. Beverley may be well on her way to her ninth decade, but she's not beyond using this intelligence to stir up a little trouble. Quite how they became attached to a three-year-old white girl is the origin of your writer's tale. Suffice to say that murder is at the root of it all, that Beverley and her female bloodline carry a weighty spiritual burden and that this is the story of how they learn to live with their ghosts, or maybe how their ghosts learn to live with them.
