    Summary

    The living and the dead have always spoken equally to Lucy, and she doesn’t know where to focus any more.

    When disaster strikes at Jacob’s Travelling Circus, Lucy flees to London, where she stumbles upon the world famous Fairfax Carnival and falls back on an old con that her mother made her do as a child; swindling punters as a fake psychic.

    Lucy is content to blend into the background and be just another carnie, but when Annabel Ward, the trapeze star, disappears overnight, Lucy is forced into the spotlight in a role she told herself she’d never do again. Add to that Lockwood's unhappiness about her getting a star act over him, and stopping the inspector investigating Annabel’s disappearance ratting her whereabouts to Jacobs; Lucy’s too distracted to even notice that the voices in her head are leading her right to the heart of the problem.

    She can’t ignore the signs forever, and when the mysterious figure lurking inside her crystal ball starts giving warnings about George and the Carnival’s secretary, Joplin, she and Lockwood must work together to figure out the dark secret behind the carnival’s popular attraction; the Hall Of Mirrors.

    Summary

    1953

    Lucy and Norrie finally achieve their dream of going to London, but without their Fourth Grade certifications, no agency will hire them. To pay the bills, they settle for night watch positions at the Old Vic theatre in Waterloo.
    When Norrie starts acting oddly and then disappears without a trace, Lucy seeks help from the charming Anthony Lockwood, a patron who helped save her life from a ghost. Exchanging investigation of the dead for that of the (debatably) living, Lockwood accompanies Lucy on her quest to find her best friend. One suspect is Richard Burton, star of Old Vic's current production of Hamlet, who has his eye on Lucy.
    As feelings grow and truths are uncovered, it's clear someone doesn't want their sins coming to light, and Lockwood and Lucy might just find themselves fighting for their lives.

    Summary

    More playing with the TV show! Uses Episode 3 of the TV show, "The Screaming Staircase," as a starting point and plays with a few things. I was curious how the world around them would dig into and respond to Lucy's past and how she and the boys might respond to it. I also wanted to give Lucy a bit more agency when the monks arrive and to give Ellie a bit more of a chance to a shine. Super interested in the idea of how the agency system takes advantage of kids and then forgets about them when their talents fade.

    Summary

    There are nowhere near enough George-centric books! I grew up on the Lockwood & Co books and finished the show the other day and oh my god was it good! George feels like such a lost and let-down character and I think he deserves more attention so I'm going to put all of my George one-shots into this book! I take requests so don't be afraid to let me know what you want to see!

    Summary

    “Percy,” Fairfax said, “shoot the girl.”

    Lucy glowered, lifted her chin to meet his self-satisfied smirk head-on. Her legs threatened to tremble but she quickly stilled them. She would not be afraid. She refused to give him the satisfaction.

    How dare this man assume that she could be reduced to nothing more than a bargaining tool.

    The weak link.

    She’d fought numerous spectors with nothing but her wits to keep her alive, jumped out windows, been the last one standing, survived the red room, and the infamous screaming staircase. She was not someone to be ignored or belittled just because she was a girl.

    And before the night was over she would show Fairfax that she was a force to be reckoned with, prove that it was him who should have been afraid.

    She had a plan.

    She had the means.

    Now she only needed the chance.

    -

    Screaming Staircase AU exploring what would have happened if Fairfax had made good on his threat and shot Lucy in the library.
