We discuss the second part of Simogo's 2024 mystery-puzzle-box video game 'Lorelei and the Laser Eyes'. As we delve deeper into the realm of Lorelei Weiss, we're challenged by anachronisms, a cast of characters that could be one person or many, and so, so many padlocks. What further mysteries does the mansion hold, and how can we untangle the fragmented maze buried within it?
We're again joined by Vanessa McCausland to talk about her newest novel 'The Last Illusion of Paige White'. The past bleeds into the future as we learn about the past of the town Jane and Paige once called home, as the women each live out their respective purgatories in the quest to understand themselves.
Thank you to Harper Collins for providing copies of The Last Illusion of Paige White, and for helping arrange our time with Vanessa.
