    He quickly recognizes the tropes.

    Unfortunately, recognizing them doesn't make them stop.

    Summary

    Alex is used to hearing yeses. He still submits another request to film with Henry a week later. Just to see what’ll happen. At the top of his inbox the very next day, forwarded to him by his manager straight from Henry’s response:

    No.

    It’s not his villain origin story, but it’s close.

    +

    Henry never films with the same person twice. Alex is determined to be the one who gets him to break his golden rule. (And no, he's not going to read into that too much.)

    Summary

    It’s simple, if Alex really thinks about it.

    Henry’d grown up in a place where protocol and decorum were necessary. Were demanded. They were facts of life rather than a conscious choice, a fully formed habit before he’d even been old enough to understand the need for it in the first place. Alex wants to get his hands a little dirty, rip into the rules and throw them so far away that they can’t touch him ever again, so that only sunlight and stars and whatever else is underneath remains.

    So, Alex waits. And watches. Maybe takes some notes. Possibly creates an Excel spreadsheet, just to be thorough, that he will vehemently deny the existence of if Henry ever happens to find any trace of it.

    And, sure enough, somewhere in there, a plan forms.

    Summary

    After Henry left Alex at his father's lakehouse, and rejected him when Alex showed up at Kensington begging for a chance, Alex accepted that Henry simply didn't love him. The cough he developed on the flight home was of course purely coincidental.

    Nothing to worry about. Definitely nothing to call Henry about.

    Summary

    December, 1946

    Alex Claremont-Diaz has settled into a quiet, overworked existence as a lawyer in London. After war years in Europe, the less excitement in his days the better. But when his sister appears with an invitation to Eden Hall, a secluded country manor house, all of that gets turned on it's head.

    When the grand dame, Lady Mary, is found dead in her bed, the house comes alive and, one by one, the guests fall victim to delusions, haunted within and without their own heads. In one night, the siblings discover ghosts: buried grievances, long held secrets, and perhaps something truly from the grave. Can Alex and June find a killer before they strike again?
