A Dance Through Time by J.P. Reedman
Isabella Lawrence is a photographer in modern day London. Her specialty is photographing old buildings prior to their restoration.
One night she goes on a shoot in a derelict theatre. As she takes her shots in the auditorium, she suddenly realises someone else, someone unknown, is in the building with her. Panicking, she runs out onto the stage–and the rotted boards crumble beneath her feet, hurling her down, down, down…
into the past
into the body of of a jobbing Victorian actress called Arabella Lorne.
Arabella is asked to marry the mysterious brooding landowner, Sir Augustus Stannion–a marriage strictly one of convenience. Despite this sham going against all Isabella believes in, she agrees, for she has no idea how else to survive in this bygone era, so familiar and yet so strange. Eventually, she comes to love the austere master of Elvingstone Manor…and there marriage is a sham no longer.
But Augustus has secrets, and so does his ruinous, Gothic mansion and the eerie churchyard beyond..
Something uncanny dwells in the crypt in the graveyard, and its presence and its malice, threatens both Stannion and Isabella, body and soul.
Should Isabella fight against this unearthly power and for the man she has grown to love…or should she save herself and seek a time portal through which she can return home?

Sector 9G by Morris Fenris
In the Southwest England of the near future, an area known to the central European powers in Brussels as ‘Sector 9G’, young IT professional Tim McNamee makes the decision to buy a cyborg bride named Mina. Several years later he tells his story; how his life had gotten to the point where he felt the need to buy a cyborg lover and the ups and downs of having a relationship with an artificially created person who owed her existence to him.
As time goes by, Mina becomes restless and begins to question the nature of her being, a search which leads to an underground religious group known as the ‘Association of God’s Children’. When she leaves her ‘habitation zone’ without permission from CyberG, the company that built her, Tim and Mina’s future together comes under threat.
Soon Mina finds herself caught between Tim, the only love of her short life, and a spiritual search that threatens to reveal more about the nature of her existence than she could possibly imagine. Tim tries to think of Mina as an independent person, but when she begins to claim supernatural powers and with the authorities closing in, will it ask too much of his logical beliefs and sensibilities?
