[Felicity · Rating 4 out of 5]

An accompanying book to the tv series of the 90s. This was actually written by Stephen Hough and it talks about bizarre incidents and coincidences. Some of my favourites were Andre Previn finding one of his father's antique books from Berlin in an antique shop in a completely different part of the world. 2 women struggling to solve a crossword clue in Crete then saying the answer "Denis Healey" at the same time just as the real Denis Healey appears... As well as spookier things like twins dying on the same day and the eerie similarities between the assainations of Kennedy and Lincoln.

There were a few incidents I thought were a bit tenuous but other than that I thought most of the material was fascinating.
