It was research I did for something else a few years ago. Just had to go back and verify why she went and it was....ambiguous.
I like Unquiet Grave, and the book itself sounds fascinating.
I suck at titles. I feel like all of mine are boring, with the possible exception of my WIP and its planned sequel...and I'm still paranoid enough about giving out my alternative history hook before I've finished the book that I don't like talking about them in a searchable forum. They're too spoilery.
I have non-spoilery working titles for my extremely sketchy ideas for Books 3 and 4 of the series--The Strangest of Bedfellows and Glory's Nemesis--but I hope I can think of something better and less cheesy between now and writing the books.
Anyone want to vote on these?

Hungry as the Grave
I like Hungry as the Grave. It has a nice rhythm.
That's one vote!
I dunno, my mind went immediately to Hungry Like the Wolf and big hair bands.
So which one do you like? It's okay if it's none of them.
The story would be a different twist on Poe's "Premature Burial."
I like "Hungry as the Grave," particularly since I found this:
Cruel as Death, and hungry as the Grave!
Burning for blood! bony, and gaunt, and grim!
Assembling wolves in raging troops descend;
And, pouring o'er the country, bear along,
Keen as the north wind sweeps the glossy snows.
All is their prize.
The Seasons: Winter, J. Thomson
There is another ballad similar to the "Unquiet Grave" .
A wife mourns her dead husband excessively, the dead husband comes back to comfort her. The results are not good.
Umm, obviously I don't remember the name.
