Jessie, a tenacious investigative journalist, receives a chilling postcard: a hauntingly familiar image of Blackwood Asylum, where her past lies, but she is unaware of it. An assignment into the mysterious disappearances at the hills brings her back to her past. A mind clouded by fragmented memories, Jessie ventures back to the abandoned asylum, its skeletal frame a stark reminder of a dark past.
As Jessie delves into the asylum's dusty archives, she uncovers a horrifying truth - a history of unethical experiments and a pervasive sense of dread. But a more immediate presence chills her to the bone - the apparition of a young woman with eyes that mirror her own. Jessie mistakes her for a curious local, yet this spectral figure seems to possess an uncanny knowledge of the asylum's secrets.
The townsfolk, harboring a deep-seated fear of the asylum's past, try to dissuade Jessie from her investigation. Ominous warnings and veiled threats become a constant undercurrent. Yet, fueled by a relentless pursuit of truth and a flicker of hope to find the secrets, Jessie persists.
As the lines between reality and illusion blur, Jessie's encounters with the ghostly woman intensify. Their conversations hint at a shared past, a bond Jessie desperately craves to understand. The spirit seems to beckon her deeper, urging her to unearth a truth so horrific it threatens to shatter Jessie's sanity.
The deeper Jessie digs, the more the townspeople reveal their desperation to keep the asylum's secrets buried. Will Jessie succumb to the chilling whispers of the past and the manipulations of the living, or will she finally uncover the truth about what happened here? Will she face the horrifying realization that the spectral woman is not a stranger, but the tormented spirit of her sister, forever trapped within the walls of Blackwood Asylum?

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.Lengkap
