The Storm is the foundation, the book that sets the stage for the series, The Cayhill Three Mysteries, and introduces the main characters: Lylle Cayhill, his wife Avila Pembroke-Cayhill and their three children 16-year-old Acer, 13-year-old Dahlia and 10-year-old Alec who find their lives turned upside down when Aunt Rebecca Pembroke, who prefers to be called Aunt Becca arrives to deliver the shocking news that Lylle and Avila are missing possibly dead.
The heirs to the Cayhill fortune find their world shattered and they aren't sure who to trust as things aren't as they seem. Even though they're convinced that Aunt Becca masterminded their parent's disappearance, they discover that she's not the only person hiding something from them.
Mitchel, their parents' lawyer has stopped by the mansion several times since their parents have been gone and has only spoken with their aunt, and Robert, the Cayhill family driver, has become quite close with her too. Then there is Debra, their father's assistant who has disappeared and Suzanne, their mother's assistant, who won't answer her phone.
Relatives and friends converged on Cayhill mansion; trying to convince the Cayhill three that their parents won't be coming home, but the children know it's not true.
With so many people acting suspicious, and so many baffling unanswered questions, the Cayhill three take matters into their own hands, but nothing can prepare them for what lies ahead.

The Vampire and The Ghost | ✔︎
[BOOK ONE OF THE VAMPIRE AND THE GHOST SERIES] She's dead, he's undead. An unusual duo make their way through the modern world, and its modern challenges. Annalise Redwood had spent too much time alone, floating in a centuries old house. The very same house she was murdered in 5 years before. She'd watched people leave, come in, investigate and even squat in this house. Yet none of them stayed long. And more importantly none of them saw her. It was hell, and she swore she was cursed. But this all changes, on the 5th anniversary of her death when a seemingly normal young man walks in. And he sees her. Eugene Cubert was old. Too old. He was done with life, had lived, breathed (well not really) and seen too much for one soul to bare. Quite frankly all he wanted to do was find a nice house to live in and spend the rest of the century comfortably locked away from all of the supernatural and natural. He's visiting his 5th house that day, when he hears it. A woman, screaming to be seen. And then he sees her. And nothings quite the same after that. ---------------------------------------------------- #No.2 in paranormal 3/7/2021 #No.1 in ghost 9/7/2021 #No.8 in murder 2/8/2021 Updates weekly!

Haunted
The dead typically want one of two things. Ghosts crave conversation. Spirits seek pain. My name is Bria, and I've been able to interact with the dead for as long as I can remember. Communicating with the deceased might sound like a cool gift, but let me assure you, it's not. Ghosts don't shut up, and not all specters are friendly. In fact, most of them are dangerous. Pretending the paranormal doesn't exist is far easier than talking to the shadows, so I've been avoiding the dead for years. Past experiences have led me to avoid the living too. And for a long time, I've successfully kept my distance. Until a single ghost encounter in the library ruins everything. Now a couple of my classmates know my secret. But as it turns out, they have a deadly secret of their own. Time to talk to the shadows again. _______________ This story contains profanity and violence. [ONC 2021 Shortlister]Complete
