What happens when the loved one of a person without money or influence disappears? Orphaned Katie finds out when her estranged identical twin sister, Eve, disappears and no one, who should help her, will help her. Confronted by Vancouver City Police who avoid responsibility for investigating her sister's disappearance, Katie follows Eve's trail on a cross-continent bus trip and into a world of political corruption as well as a past and a heritage the twins' late grandfather had tried to leave behind. With her only clue an ancient North American Native script written on a fragile scroll, 21 year old Katie vows to do what her heroes, the ground team for the Apollo 13 astronauts, did by using what little she has to bring her sister back alive. Twin Loyalties: from the Chronicles of Tar Ponds City transports the reader into a world hidden in plain sight- where society's bystander-justified indifference forces those with a missing family member to dwell.

Devil Is a Travelling Man: Two Plays by W.O. Mitchell
W.O. Mitchell jokingly called himself the great re-run king, but his retellings of age-old conflicts between humanity and the Devil strikingly display his versatile adaptive talents. <br><em>The Black Bonspiel of Wullie MacCrimmon</em> is a whimsical take on the Faust legend with a distinctly Canadian flavor. Filled with wry humor and set against the backdrop of a timeless small-town dynamic, the story of Wullie MacCrimmon's curling duel with the Devil combines the edginess of Marlowe's classic tale with the down-to-earth wry Canadian humor of "Corner Gas.". <br><em>The Devil's Instrument</em> depicts a Hutterite teenager struggling with conformity in a puritan society. Mitchell's devil in this play is a figure of sympathy, but lines such as "Happy? I am free!" invite the ambiguity of whether it is better to indulge in what seems natural, or strive for the divine. Introduced by Ormond Mitchell and Barbara Mitchell and including original production photography, this collection provides humor, sobriety, and wonderful storytelling with a dash of the infernal. An essential, whimsical part of Oxford's new Outlooks on Canadian Literature series.
