This same title is, in turn, breaking Amazon policy in that something extremely similar is available for free as written by the real author some time ago (1891, see: "The Power of Mesmerism, A Highly Erotic Narrative of Voluptuous Facts and Fancies" at Project Gutenberg)
Then there is the name of the "author" Stephen A. Heche -- which seems designed to cause confusion with our own Stephani Hecht.
Excerpts show characters referred to by their initials for some reason? And some of the details are rather imperfectly gender-swapped.
Oh, and at least some of the editorial reviews posted seem to be fake, or at least referece review sites that are unknown to Google.
I am sure that in terms of WTF, Forever Amber is a gift that keeps on giving. But I suppose I should start another list of their plagiarizing rampage.
- Compeled by Blood./ Stephen A Heche = The Power of Mesmerism / Anonymous (1891)
- Trapt desire in a Shore House / Bethany Ratner = The Empty House And Other Ghost Storiesby Algernon Blackwood

Makes you wonder why ARe and Amazon etc can't detect the similarities in the books each time they add them to their databases!
