The Archer's Wife

Bag om The Archer's Wife

A private detective (Chrystostam Donnely) is trying to communicate with the wife of an award-winning archer who disappeared (Anatole Woolsey). Chrystostam was hired by Anatole's family in Britain to crack the cold case of his presumed death or disappearance, and to unearth the details of his marriage due to the family being long estranged. The wife, Fanny Cloverfield, lives a reclusive lifestyle in Portugal and is naturally gifted at cryptology. She lives in a castle-style house where her refined human qualities are well-hidden away from society. She has been hiding from implementation of the microchip implant due to a distressing personal postmillennial end times vision that caused her to flee the United States after several economic harbinger events transpired. There is a secret society helping to relay messages for her, and keep security over her residence. It is Chrys's hope that by interviewing the wife Fanny, that he can crack the cold case, prove that Anatole is still alive somewhere, and reunite the married couple. The private detective pinpoints Fanny's location with the help of a psychically-gifted investigative assistant named Estelle Conroy who calls his attention also to an obscure record album by the group The Archer's Wife called "These Fascinating Fears," held by a high school friend Anatole met through an exchange program who now lives in the United States named Michael Baker. Baker is an unsuspecting and naive musical artist who doesn't realize the accuracy of the lyrics in the album. As Chrys's team reconstructs the events, his notoriously geeky and pedantic secretary Herbert "Glick" Nottinghaur is typing up a highly imaginative and detailed investigative report in narration of what happened from the very beginning of Fanny's relationship with Anatole starting five years prior in 2005. Complicating the investigation is a "replica persona" of Fanny named Ciara Fitzpatrick who seems to inhabit her house. During the course of the investigation, Chrystostam comes to realize that some matters require thinking that goes beyond simply a cold, hard factual basis.
