Ten years ago, Will Harper awoke in the forest, injured and bloody, with no memory of what happened to him. The two friends who were last seen with him were never found.
When a family emergency brings him back to town, he quickly realises that something isn't right. All traces of his missing friends have been erased, as if they never even existed - and what's more, they weren't the first.
Will is determined to find out what really happened. As his investigation takes him deeper into the picturesque town's bloody history, the closer he gets to the truth, the clearer it becomes that both he and his family are in danger.
Because he was supposed to die that night in the forest, and something evil is determined to finish the job.

The Medium
Seventeen year-old spirit medium Emily Chambers has a problem. Actually, she has several. As if seeing dead people isn't a big enough social disadvantage, she also has to contend with an escaped demon and a handsome ghost with a secret past. And then there's the question of her parentage. Being born an entire year after her father's death (yes, a year) and without the pale skin of other respectable English ladies, Emily is as much a mystery as the dead boy assigned to her. Jacob Beaufort's spirit has been unable to crossover since his death several months ago. It might have something to do with the fact he was murdered. Or it might not. All he knows is, he has been assigned by the Otherworld's administrators to a girl named Emily. A girl who can see and touch him. A girl who released a shape-shifting demon into the mortal realm. Together they must send the demon back before it wreaks havoc on London. It should be a simple assignment, but they soon learn there's nothing simple when a live girl and a dead boy fall in love. THE MEDIUM is the first book in the Emily Chambers Spirit Medium trilogy. Yes, that's *trilogy* - meaning not everything will be wrapped up nicely at the end of The Medium. There are 2 more books after it, both of which are published. Check out my website for details.Complete
