[Answerland] FW: [Libs-Or] Seeking title of a book

[Andrea Marshall]

Hello,

The husband and wife writing duo of Clark Hays and Katherine McFall appears
to match a majority of the biographical information.

Unfortunately I was unable to find the exact title described by the patron
in their published catalog. Here is a link for the website of their
independent press; it's a good starting point for further investigation:

All Best,
Andrea Marshall
