London-born Elna Wright is in the medical profession, but her own state of mind is far from what most consider normal. Emotionally adrift following a disastrous marriage, Elna finds her heart drawn unexpectedly towards her closest acquaintance, and forges what she believes to be an indestructible bond with Mary, a woman she previously considered 'just a friend'.After an intensely erotic relationship, Elna and her lover meet Harry, a gruff American intent on ruining their future, but the subsequent emotional chaos triggers dreams so bizarre that Elna feels empowered to intercept Harry's destructive violence towards Mary, who has since eloped to the US. Further help also arrives from an unlikely quarter, but by now more lives are caught up in the delicately wrought filigree of spiritual meltdown, and the thin veil that separates the living from the dead is finally torn asunder.Crafted with an eye for the female psyche's mystical element and unbounded potential, Filigree speaks to the intricate and uncanny in each of us. Delving into the surreal world of dreams and visions, the author has delivered a fascinating read.
