8/7/2018 : The Resurrected Ghost Chapter 20 posted. Mirrored on AoO under author name muse51.

To Catch A Lady's Favour (Published Oct 2003 Adventure, Romance Completed Jul 2005) - The entire story has been revised and reposted 6-18-2018. There has been no changes to the plot or characters. The revisions include new cover art, re-ordered chapters, ruthlessly edited text and added scenes to explain/resolve reader questions. The story flows much better.

The Resurrected Ghost (Published Aug 2005 Adventure, Mystery WIP) - All previously posted chapters have been edited. A new cover has been added. All clues and ciphers have been double-checked and proofed for accuracy. If you are following the clues and codes, see below for story notes. The title has been shortened to just The Resurrected Ghost. This story has now been placed in the same universe as To Catch a Lady's Favour. Please consider TRG as the second book set in the middle time-wise of the Albus-Minerva relationship. They are standalone stories though. I did this change because I've always wanted to do a 2nd book from Favour and it helps to explain the "status" of the relationship in TRG. Also, knowing the context, makes both stories read better.

Working on revision and completion of The Resurrected Ghost and The Bride Cometh.

Notes for The Resurrected Ghost (covering already posted chapters)

Here is a list of markers and clues:

Achnabreck: Real archeological location for the cup and ring marks. The duo encounter their first portal.

Andre de Sauvignon: Juliana's Wizard son who was also a Templar knight

The Bloody Baron Antoine de Neuvilette: Martyr, savior or scape goat? My characterization is not Pottermore-compliant as it predates Pottermore.

Christchurch Priory, Dorset: A real location. Actual historical artifacts used in the story.

The Desk: Is it really evil or just misused? Is it capable of doing good?

Destroyers of Destiny: The bad guys.

Godric Gryffindor's Journal: There is a cryptographic code embedded in the entry. The clues to the method is in the story. Think like a spy to decode.

Juliana Pendry: A naturally gifted healing witch. Why did she "disappear"? Who is her future descendant?

Kilmartin Church: A real location and the starting point for Minerva and Irma's quest. The loft, museum and displays are real.

Rowena Ravenclaw's Orbs: Lots of clues and portents that will help you to piece the mystery together.

Sir Stephen: The Once and Future Knight based on the real-life Sir Stephen de Stapelbrugge, known as the Last Templar. He is the 1st Sentinel.

Throop Mill: A real mill. This is a portal destination with a message with clues to the next destination.

Wielders of Light: The good guys.

Rowena's Gift: Supposedly shows visions of the Way to a true Seer. Hmm??

The Stones of Wonder: Real location. Great pics here.

All verses are my creation. So, any errors are my own. I try to make them interesting if not memorable.
