Adele’s diary tells the story of her domination by the incubus Lynne, a serving girl in a London alehouse who died a violent death and commandeered Adele’s body for eight years. Can Adele be held responsible for Lynne’s crimes? A time-slip novel set in contemporary Los Angeles and eighteenth-century London, "The Loneliness of the Time Traveller" is a story of love, crime, and adventure combined with fantasy, a hint of Jane Austen–style irony, and a healthy serving of social criticism.
