Introduction to the Hope House Stories
Hope House serves as a refuge for some of the misfits of this world. Some come and some go, some stay and some don’t know when or if they want to leave Hope House. A refuge can be permanent or temporary depending on need and who’s to judge what the need should be for each individual.
This is a work of fiction and fantasy. Any resemblance to persons living or dead is completely intentional, no, stop it, I mean coincidental. Hope House does not pretend to reflect real life psychiatric practices, opinions or treatments. To reiterate: it is a work of pure fiction, not a medical treatise. As the saying goes: don’t try this at home.
Gordon Trapp and Nathaniel Andrews, as introduced in prequel 'Out of Tune' own Hope House. The years have flown by and Gordon and Nat have created a family of a kind. Like most families, they have their problems, as demonstrated by events over the course of a long, stress filled weekend.

The Long Weekend
A leaking roof, invisible angels, stressed out goldfish, battling teens, horrible neighbours, undead mothers, singing nuns and secrets surfacing - it’s another long weekend at Hope House.
Nat drops a bombshell after returning from a conference, and, as his partner Gordon soon finds out, it’s just the tip of an emotional iceberg.
