WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT, Rupert Richardson and Abagail Abercrombie

Abagail Abercrombie never intended to become a reluctant custodian of Fariddion, the great beyond. But when her death becomes suddenly imminent, Rupert appears at exactly the wrong — or perhaps the right — moment to intervene. From that point on, nothing in Abagail’s life remains ordinary. A parade of eccentric characters and impossible events unfolds as she finds herself preparing and guiding a select few of Earth’s lost souls toward their rightful place in the afterlife, whether they’re ready or not.Things grow even stranger when Wilbur Warburton, a magician Abagail secretly fancies, brings her a problem: a doll named Heather.Unbeknown to Abagail, Heather’s release from five centuries of imprisonment inside that doll is part of Rupert’s and Fariddion’s long‑laid plan. Now reborn as a woman — mischievous, beautiful, slightly sinister, and entirely unpredictable — Heather is hoped to become something new: a balancing force, a shield of hope. But can her intentions truly be trusted?Abagail is pulled into a paranormal contract that is as unsettling as it is absurd, and no one will tell her all the rules. What begins as a simple tick‑the‑boxes day to obtain her RPL pilot’s licence spirals into a comedy of supernatural misfires, emotional ambushes, and mysteries that refuse to stay politely buried. Such unworldly pressures on Abagail causes Rupert to save her a second time. His gift of an Armlet a transparent slice of Fariddion, grants Abagail something exceptional, but is this just the end game Fariddion has been planning all along to finally tell Abagail the truth?With dry wit, oddball charm, and a cast of characters who treat the uncanny with the same irritation they reserve for unhealthy food, this story by M. E. Harris invites readers into a world where the paranormal isn’t noble or glamorous — it’s awkward, bureaucratic, horrifying, and hilariously human.
