Whidbey Island: A Ghost Story of Secrets That Echo Through Time
Gripping and visual, Whidbey Island reveals the mystifying world of the afterlife in a complex plot with twists and turns that keep you guessing until the last juicy chapter. When Olivia Childers inherits a family cabin on Whidbey Island, her path suddenly intersects with a handful of unsuspecting people, some living and some long gone, who unknowingly change one another's lives forever. Someone or something caused Loraine Childers' untimely death in 1954. It marked the end of one chapter, but not necessarily the last. A dusty attic reveals clues to decades of family secrets that Olivia, now a hopeless recluse, must uncover: murder at the hands of a mysterious killer, the true identity of the girl haunting Olivia's dreams, an eccentric cousin who knows more than he remembers, and a ghostly boy at the center of it all. Their choices and ultimate decisions interweave, resonating beyond the boundaries of time and across generations, leaving some trapped in cages of their own making. Whidbey Island is a ghost story told from the perspective of both the living and the dead, and explores the ultimate question: Is reality what it seems? Be careful what you wish for. Perfect for fans of paranormal women's fiction, supernatural thrillers and suspenseful ghost stories with a complex plot (without the gore, jump-scares or demonic themes), Whidbey Island is an atmospheric journey through not just the things that go bump in the night, but the terror within.Author Biography
