As I said, it's the combination. The Irish uncle is a very big clue. You're saying that it's pure coincidence her uncle is Irish and she's got the name 'Tara', even 'Tara King', a name with a very strong Irish resonance because of the Kings of Tara, a name that could particularly appeal to an Irishw...

I hadn't read R. L. Wilson's The Mind of a Heart before, but I did last night and I thought it was very good. Thank you for recommending it. I haven't read anyone else except Margaret Warren who goes so deep into the characters' thoughts and feelings. I also liked the strange and ingenious plot. I t...

Is her uncle by marriage, ie married to her parent's sister? There's nothing suggesting that, but I suppose he could be. I take the combination of her Irish name and her uncle being Irish as them indicating to us that she's Irish on her mother's side. It just fits so perfectly. I wasn't serious abo...

"Tara King" is a very Irish name and she had an Irish uncle, so presumably she was at least half-Irish. That somehow seemed to undercut the "for King and country" bit for me. I spent a large part of Wish You Were Here wondering about Tara's sense of national identity. How commit...

The name 'Tara' is certainly of Irish origin. Not so sure about 'King'. King: http://www.surnamedb.com/surname.aspx?name=King I was referring to the Kings of Tara, the ancient Irish kings. That's what the name makes me think of. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kings_of_Tara I don't know whether Linda ...

The History Thieves is a Tara King story, so I think you won't find much Steed/Emma togetherness there.

What have you liked among the stories you have found?

"Gale" I always assumed was more after the overpowering wind, meaning Cathy was a force to be reckoned with. I remember reading somewhere once that the good doctor was called "Keel" as in "on an even Keel," because he was always the more level-headed, ethical one of th...
