Description

Oliver Ryan is a mild-mannered Seattle court reporter working in 1916 Victoria, BC who gets drunk one night and is drawn toward the local cemetery. Standing in the darkness he suddenly realizes he is flying and beside him is a top-hatted man who says he's his Guardian Angel. Oliver will soon discover that he has been chosen for an experiment by mysterious forces. He meets Mary, a school teacher from Everett, WA and decides to share his story. Together they have some fascinating adventures, meeting several earthbound ghosts and through them learn more about the history of the Pacific Northwest. Don't miss Whittle's unexpected and fascinating break with tradition, co-authored with his wife Joyce -- a touching, yet often hilarious look at 19th, 20th and 21st centuries in Victoria, BC, Seattle and Everett, WA with many previously unmentioned (in Victoria Chronicles) historical tidbits.
