Plenty of people consider Margaret Finch odd.

Valentine Orphanet had an fairly ordinary life until one grey day, she saw that advert in a news agent's window: "Position of employment offered for a researcher/assistant in the field of occult resolution." It seemed more interesting than basic paperwork and filing, but no where did it say anything about exposure to witches, gnomes, fae, creatures of the night, or vampires that share our world with us without our knowledge.

When Alex first began posting unscripted family moments and motivational messages online, she had no intention of becoming an influencer.
