It happened in an instant: a car crash, thrown from the vehicle, pronounced clinically dead while lying on the road, rotors turned off the Life Flight helicopter and then swept into eternity . . . only to return, after being pronounced dead three times, to a far different life.  Welcome to The Fragrance of Angels, Martha Brookhart Halda’s memoir about time on the other side and how and why she reshaped and developed a new purpose in life after it became more fraught with challenge after visiting heaven.

The former collegiate track, volleyball, and basketball player and mother discusses how she dealt with extensive rehabilitation, a difficult marriage, re-learning to walk and talk, returning to full-time motherhood, running the Dublin Marathon three years after her accident, striking out on her own, meeting new love, and finding new meaning in a world that never looked or felt the same to her again. Within her story is that of so many other women in the middle of their lives, yet infused with a sense of purpose and discovery borne by her time on the other side.

Does it come from fertility, like the Nancys suggest? Does it come from brute strength and cold calculation, like the West believes? Or could it just be the simple beat of your own heartsong?  The world continues to collapse and the Gender Wars loom on the horizon…XX v. XY.

Wraith Ladies Who Lunch

Christabel is a Victorian phantom with a tragic past, attached to a piece of antique mourning jewelry.  Ta-senet-net-hor (her name means ‘Sister of Neith and Horus’) is a three-thousand-year-old Egyptian, attached to a mummy on display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.  Neither of them knows another ghost who’s anything more than an emotional echo, nor do they understand why they linger on when others fade away. They meet up at a restaurant near the museum now and then, to speculate about the nature of their afterlife and pretend to have a few drinks.

Until the day Derren Gray arrives in their midst. The brand-new ghost of an elderly architect provides them with answers they’ve sought for centuries, but the things they learn mean the afterlife won’t ever be the same, not for any of them.  Join the WRAITH LADIES WHO LUNCH as they address eternal questions both large and small with surreal humor, historical depth, and a hint of mystical intrigue.
