After a body is found in the canal, Nora begins to question the family she thinks she knows. Confronted with a face from the past and a dangerous stalker who won't leave her alone, Nora believes the answers are in the basement her grandmother keeps locked. There's a thin curtain between Nora and the truth. It's just a matter of time until she pulls it down. A young adult paranormal story.

Following the traumatic birth of her daughter, Kathleen-Anne spirals into depression and struggles to cope with her newborn baby. Desperate to put some life back into the wife he adores, husband Rheemus suggests that she takes some time out to have some fun with her friends and Kathleen-Anne reluctantly finds herself at the home of Barbara Arden, the town medium. Invited to take part in a séance with the spiritualist who many townsfolk believe is nothing but a charlatan, Kathleen-Anne places her fingers on the planchette and waits for the Ouija board to answer Barbara's call. When the candles begin to flicker and someone whispers her name, Kathleen-Anne realizes too late that Barbara isn't a charlatan at all and that she should have listened to her Mama's warning never to visit the medium's house. As the lights go out and the screaming begins, Kathleen-Anne is about to learn the hard way that when you call something over from the other side, it never wants to leave. ****** This story was commissioned by Universal Pictures and Wattpad and inspired by the movie Ouija: Origin of Evil.

How far will teen girls go for approval from their peers? Pretty far, it turns out. When pretty, smart Sara Long is found bludgeoned to death, it's easy to blame the man with the bat. But when Georgia Davis -- former cop and newly-minted PI -- is hired to look into the incident at the behest of the accused's sister, what she finds hints at a much different, much darker answer. It seems the privileged, affluent schoolgirls on Chicago's North Shore have learned just how much their innocence is worth to hot-under-the-collar businessmen. But while these girls can pay for their newly gotten Prada pricetags, they don't realize that their new business venture may end up costing them more than they can afford.
