As the dust settles and Christmas approaches Leo is expecting a quiet festive period with her goat and troll. Little does she know that someone has murder in mind for the Wiccans of Barnet and crystals and incense are no defence against the blackest arts. Oh, and someone ate all the good biscuits...

Leo survived the last Fae attempt on her life, but something is wrong and her friends and time-travelling daughter are worried about her. She doesn't seem to remember everything that happened at New Year. Starbucks also have a problem - vampires have set up next door and are getting hooked on caffinated blood... and how do you stop your fourteen year old daughter for falling for one of them?

Leo owes the Fae promises, promises that are being called in by Jamie in a bid to help him escape the Realm of the Fae - even if that means entering Limbo and being accused of murder at an Agatha Christie convention. With her team consisting of a time travelling daughter, a satyr and a troll around her, Leo has to escape Limbo and prove her innocence. Not easy when everyone thinks you did it.

Volume 2 of Identity, Culture, and the Science Performance investigates performances that illuminate the hidden recesses and inscrutable mysteries of the natural and human-made worlds. While the first volume of this series prioritizes public, outward-facing, and activist work at the intersections of art and science, this volume considers performances of localized, concealed, inexplicable, or intimate phenomena, from the closed-door procedures of biomedical trials to the impacts of climate change. Interdisciplinary science dialogues have long been shaped by the cultures and identity communities in which they arise and circulate. The essays, interviews, and creative works included here not only expose the historical and contemporary harms created by exclusive and prejudicial processes in art and science, they also contemplate how a diverse, inclusive body of science performers might help deepen how we “see” the unseen forces of our universe, contribute to novel scientific understandings, and disrupt disciplinary hierarchies long dominated by white men of privilege. This collection expands upon extant scholarship on theatre and science by foregrounding identity as a crucial thematic and representational element within past and present performances of science. Featuring interviews with science-integrative artists such as Lauren Gundersen (The Half-Life of Marie Curie) and Kim TallBear (Native American DNA) as well as creative works by playwrights Chantal Bilodeau and Claudia Barnett, among others, Identity, Culture, and the Science Performance, Volume 2: From the Curious to the Quantum proposes shifts in perspective and procedure necessary to establish and maintain sustainable cultures of science and art.

“Lake Wobegon Days is about the way our beliefs, desires and fears tail off into abstractions--and get renewed from time to time. . . this book, unfolding Mr. Keillor's full design, is a genuine work of American history.” —The New York Times “A comic anatomy of what is small and ordinary and therefore potentially profound and universal in American life…Keillor’s strength as a writer is to make the ordinary extraordinary.” —Chicago Tribune “Keillor’s laughs come dear, not cheap, emerging from shared virtue and good character, from reassuring us of our neighborliness and strength….His true subject is how daily life is shot with grace. Keillor writes a prose that can be turned to laughter, to tears…to compassion or satire, to a hundred effects. He is a brilliant parodist.” —San Francisco Chronicle
