BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Chira Kelly thought she didn’t need anyone…until she met Ben.
Because of one ugly rumor, Chira lives as an outcast at her school. Which is fine with her, because she works better alone. Always has, always will. And at least she has her one and only true friend, Tasha.
When Tasha insists that they join a group to visit a possibly haunted abandoned old schoolhouse, she's wary, but joins her friend. Because of that decision, their lives are in jeopardy as a malevolent spirit targets the group. Tragedies and accidents pick them off one by one, and Chira finds herself drawn to the one person who can see the truth. But can he protect her?
Excerpt:
“Wait
up!”
The
vibration that voice sends through
my body makes it clear who it is,
and I don’t bother to turn around.
Ben
stands beside me with his backpack
slung over his shoulder. I eye him.
“Were you planning on skipping the
last bit of class, too?”
“Most
everyone is. After that bit of news,
no one can concentrate on their work
anymore,” he says.
I
nod and start walking again. “That’s
for sure.”
“Where
are you going? I told you never
to go anywhere alone right now. It’s
not safe.”
“How
are you going to save me from
this...curse that everyone’s talking about?”
He
frowns. “What curse?”
“The
Old Schoolhouse is not only haunted,
but apparently there’s a curse now.
If you’ve seen the ghost, you have an
accident. Or something like that.”
Ben’s
jaw tightens. “Urban legend. I don’t buy into
silly superstitions.”
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
In simple language, Pauline Creeden creates worlds that are both familiar and strange, often pulling the veil between dimensions. She becomes the main character in each of her stories, and because she has ADD, she will get bored if she pretends to be one person for too long. Pauline is a horse trainer from Virginia, but writing is her therapy.
