Today, we’re chatting about a woman who discovers her family’s shocking involvement as Nazi and Japanese spies during WWII; four sisters who must find out if they really are descendants of Persephone and save the friendly ghost that lives in their brownstone attic; and a group of strangers who must relearn how to navigate the world after a mysterious illness strips them of their memories.
